The reason everyone in Germany has snow tires is because their use is mandatory in winter conditions, punishable by fines and points on your license.

It's the same for Canada if you choose to drive any of the mountain highways passes. The cops will fine you if they catch you without a "mountain-snowflake" graded tire.
