"The extreme weather changes...that's just Canada!"
If that were "just Canada", we wouldn't we talking about it.

Toronto needs another 40% tax to fix this. Most of the smog comes from there

Bring on the snow! It's still winter and we have a ski industry to get back to in BC.

[billybowbob]

We definitely need to change the name of that Trudeau Airport

[vastthinker]

It must be terrible to be Environment Canada and restrain from speaking the truth😊

[WilbertRobichaud]

Nothing abnormal weather-wise, they add "extreme " to make it look scary.

[josephalberta]

Still getting lots of cold in Alberta.

[bbm]

time to tax the weather...which they control BTW.

[Nova_Scotia_Adventurer]

Late winter gets like this. Always has.

[TurningoffyourGaslights]

Oh...temperature dropping in winter.
Climate change! Carbon tax!

Here 90 minutes north east of Toronto the wind was sure windy (no one escapes wind), the snow was lack luster though and currently it is chilly. Or in other words, not news worthy. The fires in Texas and the 8 feet of snow in the Sierra Nevadas is noteworthy. But this current weather won't impress anyone in Nova Scotia.

Awesome glasses on Dave Phillips, blue frame! Where do you get those?

[thudang]

Here in Nova Scotia, and we're definitely seeing this crazy weather, and I'm not even out in Cape Breton area. They're really getting hammered.

[bernl]

Nothing to see here don’t look up And on a sidenote, are we expecting another tax to mitigate this?

[bradsmith]

It’s called winter.

It’s not “extreme”.

Get a life.
