We CAN agree it's all relative AND we don't diminish people's experiences.


It's like someone saying they lost a leg and they are suffering... but then someone comes along and says... you think you are suffering... I lost both legs..... I get it, both are suffering...

Embracing Winter in Canada

Many Canadians cherish winter for the myriad activities it offers. For instance, sliding down the slopes of places like the Blue Mountains can be exhilarating, though temperatures can plunge as low as -40°C! Chased me away last weekend.

Winter carnivals in Ottawa and Quebec showcase the festive spirit, while skating on the frozen Rideau River, especially enjoyed by Canadians from Carleton University to the University of Ottawa, makes for memorable experiences. Other beloved activities include visiting the iconic ice hotel in Quebec City, snowmobiling through snowy trails, cross-country skiing across serene landscapes, winter camping under starry skies, and ice fishing on tranquil lakes.

Despite facing harsher winters, residents in Manitoba and Eastern Canada embrace the cold with preparation and enthusiasm. The changing seasons offer unique perspectives and experiences, making winter an integral part of the Canadian identity.
