I don't get why people care about winter weather. You spend so much time indoors it doesn't even matter. I mean, the cold would sure suck, and snow is a bother for driving etc., but other than that who cares?
It's the summer that matters, you know, when people spend time outside and stuff? It rains 4 times as much in Calgary (vs Victoria) in June/July/August. I remember being in Calgary for two weeks in August about ten years ago...it pretty much didn't stop raining. Being from a virtual summer desert, it was pretty shocking for me. Can't imagine such a horrible climate - freezing in the winter and rainy in the summer. Blech.
