    I chuckled the first couple of times I heard it. But to be completely open, I'd say there's a 50/50 chance I move back up there. I'll take Trudeau's bromides and good looks any day over Trump.

        Your wife is Canadian, right? There's the 50%.
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

            You're freaking crazy. Loved my mission, hated the winters. Almost every night, as I trudged back to our apartment after having people refuse to open their sealed-closed-for-the-winter-front doors all evening long in subzero temperatures outside of Québec city, i used to wonder who was the first guy who brought his family here and didn't leave after the first winter? Rule of thumb: never choose to live where people need to wrap their car radiators in cardboard and blankets to stop them from freezing WHILE THE CAR IS BEING USED.
            PLesa excuse the tpyos.

              Yep. Maybe I should bump that up to 60/40. Have you ever spent time on Vancouver Island?

              The worst Canadian winter I ever experienced was my first, in Calgary. It was minus 35 Celsius. Brutal. Montreal never got that bad. But every once in a while the winds made winter pretty miserable.

                Simple answer: Canadians.

                  Ooh, Quebec City in winter was cold. MP said we could stay in if the windchill got below -40.

                      Is that the 61st or 62nd Dem to declare? I'm losing track.

                            Growing up in Western Canada, Quebec was every boy's last place they wanted to be called on a mission.

                            I'm guessing that winters are much worse for missionaries than most people as they spend much more time outside and travelling around neighborhoods.
