LOL! I lived in Calgary...if you can clear your driveway with a broom during the winter, that doesn't mean you get snow
All seriousness though, if you take care of your car, rustproof and keep it clean, you shouldn't be getting rust. I have 120k km on my 'balt, and Montreal is notorious for snow and salty roads and still yet to rust in my bay or panels.

I've lived there for a couple years though and I've never had to use a snowblower, and they wouldn't use salt to melt the ice on the roads...they stuck to gravel rocks (which is why everybody there has a cracked windshield) and the occasional sand. Sure Montreal's snowfall isn't as bad as when I lived in Winnipeg...but still.

well if you look at the pic, the only rust is from aftermarket parts. Monroe Strut mounts and the K&N Intake bracket.
