I don't know anything about it but doesn't sound like much fun, winter in Canada.



No need to bash if you don't know anything about it. Winter in Canada is better than most places. Instead of getting lots of rain you get lots of snow. It's nice to have more than 2 or 3 seasons.

You obviously don't live in Vancouver, where it rains virtually every day for the 6 months of winter (and I say this as someone who lived there for 5 years). Very SAD.

And in Toronto that snow very quickly turns to dirty slush. Gets old real fast.

There's a reason Canadians who move to California tend to stay there. (Well, assuming they can get a green card. I didn't, which is why I'm now in Melbourne.)


The post mentions Montreal. Where it does snow, it rains seldom during winter and sunny, but cold, days are the norm from December to March. You can't generalize on the weather in a 10 million square kilometer country.
