My point is more that it's over blown. To say it sucks or is terrible, or a reason to avoid the city is not true IMO. It's not like this is some town in the middle of the tundra, or a city surrounded by desert.

If people can move here from Saudi Arabia, and have few complaints about the weather, then I think anyone can make it work with little trouble.
I think what people mean then they say "the weather sucks" is that you can't depend on the seasons to be correct. I have seen snow in every month of the calendar in Calgary. In that aspect, IMO, it does suck. It can be a crap shoot which July shows up, or for that matter which January shows up. Cold when it should be warm and warm when it should be cold.
