Canada reached 35 million people in December. Congo kings don't give a fuck about the cold.
Rouge I was only kidding about the 11 months of cold, pal.
We have 4 seasons, with cold winters (3 months) and warm summers.
Back in 1988 I was driving a Gray Coach bus from Buffalo NY to Toronto via Fort Erie & Niagara Falls, had a woman and her teen daughter sitting in the front seat and we were chatting as I pulled out of the Greyhound station in Buffalo.
She was from NYC and had never been to Canada, it was July. As we traveled over the Peace Bridge in to Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada she asked me why it was so warm, she was 100% serious. She thought that it was cold in Canada and by crossing the border the weather would change, instantly.
I politely reminded her it was summer and the temps are about the same from Buffalo to Toronto. We drove on to Toronto and kept chatting.
She was a nice lady, just not too bright.
PS: The bus driving job at Gray Coach was the most enjoyable job I've ever had. Met tons of broads and spent 4 nights a week in a hotel in Buffalo. I was a junior driver and none of the older drivers wanted to be stuck in a hotel 4 nights a week away from home/family. I had a fukkin blast.
