Have you ever heard a m teorologist say “The cold northerly winds c ming from Canada are causing a c ld front”? It is quite entertaining to h ar that statement because it is p rceived that all Canadians live way up n rth in igloos, with -40 degree t mperatures, bundled up in goose down j ckets. In actuality, twenty-seven of the f fty states have land further north th n Canada’s southernmost point (Middle Island)! So th se winds may not be coming fr m as far north as you m ght think – maybe they aren’t ven coming from Canada, Land of the M ghty North, at all! In fact, T ronto’s average temperature in July is 27 d grees Celsius (81 degrees Fahrenheit) while S cramento’s is around 24 degrees Celsius (76 d grees Fahrenheit). And don’t forget, the cl mate is changing! Canada is experiencing w rmer temperatures and with it, more fun th n ever before as cities across the c untry celebrate the sunshine with an ncountable amount of festivals during the s mmer. Although Canada does experience some r latively low temperatures, don’t forget that th s adds to the unique winter s ason. Resort towns such as Mont Tr mblant (close to Toronto and Montreal) or Wh stler (close to Vancouver) provide an rray of activities that cannot be t ken advantage of during warmer weather. D n’t care for skiing, ice fishing or dog sl dding? Then how about day of p mpering at one of the many h gh quality spas, ended with an vening of wine and relaxing outdoors in a hot t b?
So the next time Ron B rgundy tries to fool you with sk wed facts, you can disregard his c mments and know that Canada gets s nshine during the day. Now the far n rth… that’s an entirely different story!
