you know you're Canadian when....
 
...you take your first step outside at 8AM, its below 7 degrees and the first thing that comes to mind is "it's going to be a warm day"

LOL, true dat.

I'll take 7 over what we have here this morning!!!! And the worst is, at -20, it's not the coldest it has been in the last few weeks. AND, I hear the amount of snow we've had so far surpasses the record set 112 years ago. *sigh* gonna be a long winter. (Although on the upside, long winters for me means "nicer reef tanks" because they get way more attention..)

Unless you're from the Wet Coast where the mere thought of freezing temperatures invokes terror in all human inhabitants.

we just finished 4-5 days of -20 not factoring in the wind chill. This is T-shirt weather lol

Why yes! here in Victoria we don't like frost on our palm trees!

You're all a bunch of fancies. I don't zip up my jacket until -30.

Gotta use the remote start too if it's below 2 degrees

my favorite is when there's a blizzard out, -35 temp and the tim horton drive-thru is packed!

It's been very cold here too. It hit -30 and I had to put on a hoodie to go out and BBQ my steaks! Brrr! Not to mention the hassle it was shovelling the white stuff off the a Weber.

You know you are Canadian when ..... you go across the line and the American border guard calls Canadians '' cheese heads ''. What's wrong with bringing back 6 lbs of cheese each time ?
