I won't browse any web to find you the information. Let me tell you my life here for 20 years.These are extreme examples.How about daily lives That's not bad.When it is minus 30C out there, I would jump into my car in the garage, drive to work, and then go home after 8 hours. We go to inside shopping mall, so weather is not a concern.That's why in Edmonton, Alberta, there is the biggest mall in the world.Besides shops, restaurants and movie theatres, there are a theme park with all rides and a water park to swim in the winter.Even it is minus 30C, we still smoke outdoor.no big deal.When it is minus 20C, we go outside for say 30 minutes at most.When it is minus 10C, it is nothing.Snow covering (meaning snow on the ground) last for about 120 days a year in Toronto, usually from the end of December by Christmas to April the next year.Depth of snow varies every year from almost nothing to the most extreme in my 20 years, 15 feet.Snow plowing is a national sport in Canada.About 6 times a winter, I have to spend about 8 hours for each time to clear the driveway before I can move my car. You can hire a professional plower to do it for you for about 200 dollars per winter.Every winter, about 10 people die because of heart attack while they are working on the driveway.Is Vancouver betterYes, not too cold, but still cold enough for a newbie in Canada.Vancouver keeps raining all the time, a nuisance to drive people out from the province.Simple think about cold and rain together.In Toronto, it is cold, but does not rain that much.I am also from the south in China.It was difficult for me in the first winter.I came on March 5 20 yeas ago when Toronto was just hit by a snow storm and the temperature was about minus 25C.I almost turned back for China.I stayed of course.Now, winter is nothing.I am expecting it to come for skiing and skating and ice fishing.How about other parts of Canada: colder than Toronto.
