@@FrankHuynh Any city in Lower Mainland (BC) best place to live and tons & tons of activities and places to visit. But can't afford 1.3mil house so have to move to winnipeg or calgary. Have solid job opportunity in winnipeg but don't want to move there. Really confused! Ugh
Thank you. I am going to live in Canada in the next few months. so coming from a warm, hot country makes me stressed and scared from cold, harsh winters. I'll take your advice in consideration
Good question. Not sure, it sounds good to be by the beach always but I kind of enjoy the 4 seasons. It's only when its like 8 months of year that its cold like winter in Winnipeg that I dislike lol.
I'm also a Winnipegger, born and raised (though I spent 7 years out in Montreal), and I don't actually mind the weather. Summers are gorgeous, and mosquitoes are a minor inconvenience, as they are generally only around in the crepuscular hours, just past sunset and before sunrise (maybe 4 hours per day). If you want to be outside then, just apply some _Off! Deep Woods._ As for our winters, the only issue I have is with their length...and that's actually improving due to climate change (one of the rare benefits thereof). Winter used to be a November to April (inclusive) event - literally half the year...~180 days. Now, I'd say winter begins, on average, around Remembrance Day and ends in mid-April most years, which drops it down to ~155 days. Permanent snowfall before Halloween used to be a real possibility; now, it's unheard-of. Nice fall weather (where the daily high is in the Celsius teens) used to end around the beginning of October, but now, these conditions are common right up until late October. So the length is gradually improving (although this year, with an anomalous La Niña hanging on for dear life,* our spring was rather terrible). As for the extreme cold, honestly, I don't mind it. I have a dog that needs walking, and there are VERY few days when I won't take him for a walk of at least 30 minutes (under 10 days each winter on average). Less extreme cold (temperatures in the -20s Celsius) isn't great, but you bundle up with a few layers of clothing (at least one of which should be wind-resistant) and cover any exposed flesh you can...and you're fine. I commute by bus, and so I am outside all the time in the winter - it's really not that bad (and Winnipeg's transit system sucks, requiring more outside time than you'd ideally like). I should also say that I prefer extreme cold to extreme heat - I would die if I lived in Australia or southeast Asia. You can always put more clothes on if it's very cold, but most places won't allow you to walk around naked due to brutal heat (not that it would help much). Properly prepared people can survive both extreme cold and extreme heat, but surviving extreme cold is a lot less...oppressive. Montreal summers were brutal when I lived there, high humidities and temperatures in the mid-30s Celsius...it was hard to exist without A/C. Some nights I couldn't sleep due to the heat. But in winter in Montreal (not as cold as Winnipeg, obviously), I sometimes had my window open, because building heating was too effective. Canadian cities are designed for extreme cold, so heat waves are by far the most deadly weather threat here. *La Niña doesn't usually have a large effect on Manitoba...it mainly makes winter a bit colder and a bit snowier. This year it made it moderately colder and a LOT snowier, as well as quite a bit longer. That's not something that we normally have to worry about.
Hi Jason - Oh easily Calgary felt colder/longer I would say. I remember ppl telling me there were years in the past where Calgary had snow in Sept 0.0 - more on rare side, but it happens!
I think BC winters are pretty great. yes Vancouver is stereotyped as rain-heavy, but you see when it rains it's just regular rains and more often rain is during Autumn and Spring season - times when it _should_ be raining. Meanwhile in Toronto sometimes it feels like there's more rain in the summer than any other season (probably because you wouldn't expect so much rain in the summer), and when it rains it pours! It's thunderstorms and it feel more like a monsoon. Though seeing how hot summers get, the rain is a welcome bc it just relieves you of the heat and temporarily decreases temp. in the air. Rain in Victoria and Vancouver is really not that bad, esp if you're someone who enjoys rain. I'd pick rainy winters over snow anyday bc rainy winters are veery mild in temp.

I prefer Calgary, or Edmonton.
Thank you.

Best of luck!
Feels like I just had a lesson on the weather. Winnipeg winters are no joke. Recently it's been -45°C with the windchill 🥶
Hahaha I might not win kudo points talking about the weather 😝 -45 is rough!
If you have a choice, good job and opportunity, etc. Would you rather live in a wamer city near the beach ⛱️?

lol!
personally I think Toronto is too hot as humid hot during the summer comparing to Vancouver at least~ and the mosquitos LMAO…
It does get quite humid out here! Go air condition lol
Hey frank, which winters did you actually feel colder in toronto or Calgary?
Hi Jason - Oh easily Calgary felt colder/longer I would say. I remember ppl telling me there were years in the past where Calgary had snow in Sept 0.0 - more on rare side, but it happens!
Something wrong with sound 😭
aw man i tried fixing it too! thanks for heads up
Toronto winter chart looks normal
It's not too bad! Will actually experience 4 seasons pretty much
Toronto weather is not the Bahamas
It's more like NYC THEN !
Halifax
Woohoo!
No good winters no matter which city in canada to be honest
hahah well it is canada end of day :P
