warming ocean

Canada's weather? There is no such thing. It is several thousands of miles east and west and a couple north. In coastal BC it rarely freezes and in the High Arctic it rarely thaws.

Winnipeg winters are fine. Cold but with lots of sunshine, skiing, skating, and snowmobiling and ice fishing. A few days a year Winnipeg even has fog so Londoners would be right at home. Only the decadent fly south with their expensive supplemental health insurance.

Cheers, Ken Hanly
