All-weather tires were introduced about 3 years ago, just learnt about them today 
"All-weather tires carry the Transport Canada pictograph of mountain peaks containing
several snowflakes. This logo indicates these tires pass the test as a “snow/winter” tire.
The important difference is they can be left on the car all year round.
All-season tires do not carry this logo because they have not passed the winter test.
All-season tires were originally meant to be able to cope with snow and ice, but their grip
falls as fast as the Times Square ball on New Year’s Eve when temperatures drop."
