I don't think the winters in Calgary are as bad as some make out. Yes it is cold, but at least it is a DRY cold.

Re: Calgary winters.....brrrrr!!!
I have a friend in Calgary who has seen snowfalls in May (although it doesn`t stay) and she had to turn on the heat in her home last month (August!)
Winters are cold! |

Ah, the old dry vs damp debate. My MIL drove me crazy when visiting last Christmas with constant exclamations of "It's not so cold! It must be because it's dry", while she walked outside dressed in clothing suitable for an assault on Everest. Unfortunately she refused to accept my challenge to experience a dry -30C dressed in what she wears for a damp +2C in the UK.
They should put it on the licence plates here. Alberta - but it's a dry cold! |

Kinda long for a license plate, but if you can sell it, you got my investment money. |
