<font color=blue>merits of the rear blade for moving snow... To me, unless the path that you are trying to clear is elevated, angling the blade to one side isn't going to help... This year is quite an exception, but usually it only takes about 2 or 3 snowfalls before the banks are chest high.</font color=blue>
That's why I said to go with a rear blade <font color=red>"unless you regularly get dumped on with heavy snow"</font color=red>.
Crown has a 100 ft paved driveway in Winchester, VA. That's a far cry from where you are in Ontario. I believe Winchester is in the mountains, so maybe I'm off base in my recommendation. Maybe he does regularly get dumped on with snow. If so, then yes, a blower is a great way to go. If not, I'd still go with the rear blade, and on those rare occasions where you get a heavy snowfall, just push it back from the edge with the blade or the FEL. More work, but if it doesn't happen very often it's not a big deal, and you can use the $$ for other toys ... er ... useful attachments.
