A road hockey game broke out on a snowy Coquihalla Highway during a road closure on Tuesday, Dec. 17.

There's not many things you'll see more Canadian than this.

On Tuesday night (Dec. 17) during the closure of the Coquihalla Highway, a bus filled with a hockey team on a road trip decided to break out into a game.

As the team played on the closed highway and the snow fell, a woman and her son in a vehicle close by got out to stretch their legs and watch the impromptu game when the team asked the son to join them. 

The woman, Jaenine McFarlen posted a video of the experience on Facebook.

"Grateful we made it home, and grateful for all the amazing people in this world!" she wrote in her post.
