Tell me about it... I lived a year in Hawkesbury, half way between Ottawa and Montreal. Just on the Ontario side.

I have fond memories of my boogie men freezing and nose hair breaking from a sniff of fresh, 40 degree below air in the morning. Or when the rain falls in subzero temperatures, covering everything in a pretty, but cold and deadly coat of ice. I saw cars sliding along at 5 ks an hour on the road, wheels locked up, and completely unable to stop, because everything was covered by freezing rain.

Come to think of it, Australia is pretty good...

If you come to Newie (as it's called by the locals) let us know, and we'll show you some crags, hand over some shark repellant and hang out, looking for people who wear socks in their sandals. They're probably scandinavian.... ;-)
