Are you going to mention the days in April when you shovel the driveway?
You are claiming exceptions as the norm.

That's funny, I have golfed in November and March every year. In fact I golfed on December 1, 4 and 16th this year. We didn't get our first accumulation of snow until the 22nd.
My sister has golfed on New Year's Day in the past.
Yes we have had the odd snow in April, but we have also summer weather in March. Here are the temperatures from this past March 7th through 28th:
15, 13, 0, 4, 16, 13, 16, 17, 21, 22, 22, 22, 22, 25, 27, 27, 20, 13, 17, 5, 9, 19, all in Celsius. Now this was an aberration for sure, but only that it lasted this long, but we almost always get a long enough stretch to open the courses.

In November 17 days were 6 degrees or above, in December there were 10.

This Saturday is going to be 10, though we have had snow for a while, I guarantee some of the dryer courses within 45 minutes south of here will be open.
I'm not sure when you lived in Toronto, but it is also usully a few degrees colder, which means snow stays just a little longer. We get weather like this all the time.
