Something Special About Being Canadian

September 13th, 2007

There’s that time of year, namely right now, when 10-15 degrees celcius requires quite a few layers, probably a jacket, and maybe even light gloves for the weaker among us. It’s that time of year when we are coming down off of temperatures consistantly in the mid-twenties reaching as high as 35-40 when factoring in humidity.

And then there’s that time of year, in approximately six months, when 10-15 degrees celcius requires a t-shirt, possibly sandles, maybe even a tank top and shorts for the more ambitious among us. It’s that time of year when we are coming away from temperatures consistantly in the minus mid-twenties reaching as low as minus 35-40 when factoring in windchill.

Beautiful country. Amazing people and culture. Ridiculous (read: downright laughable) climate.
