Actually, no.  Being an American myself, I can tell you at least from my experience that the people I know think of Canada as our neighbors to the north.  Canada is just like America, only you guys got it right, while we continue to spiral down into a pit of despair.  A friend of mine recently moved to Canada and I'm actually quite jealous of the things that are better in Canada.  Being an American, he sees and doesn't take for granted what you guys have up there.

I play roller hockey outdoors, so it is all about the season. Currently it is definitely shorts-weather, though when the winter chill comes to the northeast, out come the sweatpants.

It's very simple, actually.  The answer lies in "Canada Post".  Not even their cold fronts are very reliable...as can be proven by our American weathermen.

Only God and Mother Nature. Sorry,not trying to be ugly just stating a fact,or else maybe" small one at that" the local weather guy/lady,but here in Texas they don't even get it right more than less than 2% of the time. But could use some here,want to send us some rain,would be greatly appreciated. Will try to return favor and send you some sunshine,how's that for a trade? :)

Our snow is FINALLY GONE!! We have the same problem, one day you're in T-shirts and the next you are in a parka. Lately it's been consistant....sunny, but only about 35-40 degrees. Mid-Michigan area

I have to agree with you, although I do not live in Ohio.  I live in MN.  I wouldn't say that things are 'tropical', but things are definitely changing around the globe.  Like you, I remember as a child having deep amounts of heavy snow for long periods of time.  Snow drift as high as 8 feet!  The last 10 years snow amounts have never compared to what we got in the '80's.  Although now days, we don't get snow that melts away by noon.....That is probably because MN is slightly more north that Ohio.  Also, it really depends on the system that is passing through.  \nGood question....\nHope you get some fun answers!

It's 55 degrees in Massachusetts today! What arctic air? Still a heatwave by my standards. Everything I know about canadians I learned from watching Trailer Park Boys.

No, don't you have a weather channel where you're at? If you are in North America you would know that even in the northern areas of Canada it gets warm. Southern Ontario...hot hot hot!!! not all year. Last year when I lived in southern Ontario we hardly had any snow at all.\nNow I live in Newfoundland. It wasn't as sickly hot as Ontario in the summer(but there were a few really hot days(&I am now much further north). Winter remains to be seen for me here as of yet but so far the fall weather really isn't any different than Ontario.

warm air and cold air combine to make storms... in the winter there is less warm air

Aalexart put the case extremely well, and has obviously like me read several books that have no bias.\nThe site below will help you, the presumptiousness of man that we can influence the weather. King Canute had more success with the tide.\nYes we are gradually returning to the climate pre the mini ice age, but we still have a long way to go.

It rains because the upper atmosphere is warmer than the air at the ground. Generally this is freezing rain, but not always.

It's just a fun rivalry.  Canadians do it too.  Are you from Canadia?

I think this is related to the so-called "pathetic fallacy": the idea that a person's moods are connected with the weather and so on.  (Nowadays, it doesn't seem like so much of a fallacy!)

You've kind of answered your own question...it's actually not the aborigines they were referring to, but to the alaskans....damn cold there!
