It's true that the snow makes it warming, it's insulation (from the air trapped in the snow, air being one of the best insulation there is). It protects lawn. It's generally much colder on non-snowy days.
It also depends on if its a clear day or a a cloudy day. I moved north from Southern Ontario for university and they tried to warn us in the first couple of weeks that clear winter days are colder than snowy/cloudy ones but many of us, myself included, didn't believe it until we experienced it.
Unless you live in southern Alberta where there are regular (100+km/hr) wind warnings. In that case, the snow will feel like it’s sandblasting your face.

2:45 It's actually very common. All it takes is a consistent light snow fall for a while, then either warm up enough to cause freezing rain or just thaw enough snow to create a layer of Ice when the temps drop at night.
The 10 degree weather really depends on what time of year it happens. If it is 10 degrees Celsius in the fall, we are bundled up like we are about to travel to the arctic. However, it it is 10 degrees in the Springtime, definitely shorts weather. 🤣
@@slake9727 If your going to try to challenge that information then you should probably know that Antarctica is also defined as a desert. A desert is any area of land that receives no more then 25 centimetres (10 Inches) of rain across the entire year. Im guessing your going to say a Desert is somewhere thats over 38°C or over 100°F which is true for an arid desert, the Okanagan is not an fully arid desert, its more a Shrubland Desert, it does though boarder the Osoyoos Desert. BC is categorized as Temperate Rainforest, but I guess your definition of Rainforest includes killer piranhas, massive rivers and foliage from bedrock to canopy like the Amazon, which is a Tropical Rainforest.
@@jesust.dud8 I looked it up for its been a long time since I've been there, the Osoyoos Desert is a part of the Okanagan Valley so it is still technically one desert, I was just getting confused on if it was Okanagan or Osoyoos. Also Facts are and have been subject to change, allot of Facts that once existed ended up being debunked as being not fully true or completely false because the original evidence was not observed in the correct way it was meant to be observed was done incorrectly but gave a completely different result. Plus Facts can also be paradoxes and such with this classic example. "Fact: This fact does not exist"
Old Montreal and Old Quebec are part of the original cities. Old Montreal ia about 375 years old and Quebec is the only walled city in N.A. saw Montreal and was amazed by the structures. if you get the chance come for the visit.
the snow does make it warmer. It's like insulations. Late Novembers are super dry and cold and chills to the bone. When the snow comes in, it feels slightly warmer.
Did you know some people not from Canada actually put Canada keychains and things on their bags when they travel so that people think they're Canadian -- just because Canadians are so well-liked? As a Canadian, it actually makes me really happy to know that people think such good things of us 🍁🇨🇦
I’d say the reason Americans know of Toronto by name more than any other Canadian city is simply because of sports.. Toronto is the only Canadian city in both the NBA, and the MLB.. and one of six in the NHL. So not only do hockey fans hear the name often, so do basketball and baseball fans in the states ⚾️ 🏀
It’s more so because of the entertainment industry. The Toronto Film Festival and TO’s film industry. Canada is slower to tear down and rebuild, as well as has generally been good about upkeep. So we have more period accurate buildings that can stand in for other times, but also new builds that can be dressed up as the current cities. For those into comedy, Montreal’s Just For Laughs is the other major entertainment industry festival and city that’s made its mark internationally. The audience for tv and film is bigger than that of sports. In the sense of those that would retain info about the name of a city. “My fav movie or tv show was filmed in __, Canada” vs anyone caring who their fav team usually beats 😛 (Which is/was more often the case, with the odd exceptions.)
I learned really early to make sure I carried something Canadian when travelling outside of Canada. My parents regularly had to travel internationally. I could recognize Canadians by our Tilley hat and clothes and the flag. Only Americans would automatically assume I was on their side, just because I was Canadian. I am on the side of people who don’t broadcast that they are better than anyone else because they are American.
@Levek the BC accent I can see be mistaken for a US accent (definitely not Texas though). However, I’m doubting you’ve ever met someone from the east coast of Canada. In no way does someone from Newfoundland (or even New Brunswick) sounds like some from the US. Hell, Newfoundland basically has their own damn language it sounds so different.
@@terryomalley1974 I consider it a reaction to the constant barrage of US propaganda proclaiming themselves the best country in the world. Also, there’s a stereotype of a US tourist being overly loud and brash for a reason. Not all US tourists are like that but enough are that it paints an ugly picture for other countries.
Your reactions are fantastic, keep up the good work ♪ I had a tour guide in Quebec City (old). Je me souveins: The streets are super narrow and were designed for horses instead of vehicles. Our tour bus couldn't turn one of the corner's near our hotel. This was also designed back when people emptied their chamber pots out of the windows onto the streets below. And apparently the men of said time allowed the women to walk closer to the road to avoid said splash zone.
Toonie was a comedic term when we had a nationwide census on what to name the new $2 coin when it came out. The $1 coin replaced the $1 bill some years earlier and was named the Loonie because it has a loon on it. The Toonie was simply lazy naming to go along with the Loonie. I still think we should have gone with the Bear Buck.
The Okanagan valley is Canada’s Napa Valley. My sister and Mom live in the south Okanagan which has about 150 wineries. Several lakes, orchards, vineyards and resorts. Whistler is super well known for skiers. When ‘pop’ was invented, it was called soda pop. Weird that south says soda and north says pop. Lol.
First video - had a similar issue this past winter. Package was delivered (in an envelope like in the video) and I wasn't notified. It snowed a bit overnight and the package was buried. They were clearing snow with a snowblower up to each door of my complex, and completely shredded the package in the snow. :( Luckily it wasn't anything too expensive!
As a Canadian, buying milk in bags is just so normal I didn’t think it would be a problem for anyone else. We even have jugs that are made for holding these milk bags 😅
Not a Canadian thing, Milk bags are only sold in Ontario, Quebec and some places in the Maritimes. They are also sold in the Upper Midwest states of America. The primary way milk is sold in South America, Iran, Israel, India, Russia and continental European countries is bags as well.
We used to have the bags here in Saskatchewan when I was growing up (35 years ago).. also a milkman and a milk truck. Hadn't thought about that in years.. Wow I'm feeling old 😂
It's a TUque with a U. I don't understand why everyone spells it "toque." A toque is the white paperish hat chefs wear. Thank you for pronouncing it right Tyler ❤ as a Québecer (the word tuque is French Canadian) people pronouncing it "toque" drive me off the wall!!
Canadians consume a lot of media from the US. There are a lot of times when I’ve been watching something only to find out all the newer episodes/videos haven’t been released internationally yet, or something is only available on US versions of streaming sites. Shipping is a whole other beast. It can be so annoying to constantly be advertised things that have “free shipping” only to find out that it actually costs $10 if it even ships to Canada at all.
Old Québec and Old Montréal are the original parts of the cities that have survived since North America was founded. As well Parlement Hill is in Ottawa and it's quite a site to visit.
Despite inflation, Montreal is still the most affordable big city in Canada. A one closed bedroom apartment is now over 1000$ (they used to be between 500-700$). Mind you, it all depends on the neighbourhood you live in. Downtown Montreal or The Plateau are crazy expensive.
I live in northwestern Ontario, it is may 24 and it is 7 degrees celsius, 4 degrees with the wind chill and we just received a frost advisory. It’s not always winter here in Canada but our summers can be very short.
In a sense, you still need a provincial healthcard to visit the doctor/hospital for free and, each province has their own. Although, your health card only works for your province in its full extent and can be used in other provinces with limitations. And yes, "not available in your country" is quite common.
Okanagan (O-Kan-agan) Valley is all the Mountains that surround the huge Lake Okanagan part of Kelowna and West Bank British Columbia......you have a huge lake in the middle and mountains all around you, plus Warm Weather, Vineyards (Wine Country), Orchards, houses on the sides of the mountains with balcony's overlooking the lake, it Beautiful, my mom lives there, if I could put pictures on here of it I would!

Yes the old Québec and montreal are the part close to the saint-laurent river where the were first founded in 1608 and 1642 the building are the oldest of both cities.
Yes, it does tend to warm up when it snows. I full sunny day in January will mean temps are going to drop to well below 38 to 48 Celsius. This is how our weather works most of the time. It also gets very hot in the spring. Plus 30 degrees and above into summer. We almost don't have spring..we just smash into summer from winter.
The reason Americans all know Toronto is because you get to see the Yankee's play the BlueJay's and the Laker's play thr Raptors in Toronto and both Toronto teams won world championships

Duotang is a name brand, like Kleenex, or KD. It's named for (originally) only having the top and bottom tangs to fill standard three hole punch paper, allowing it to use less metal, be cheaper, and thus be more popular for school supplies.
Toronto is the economic center of the Canada, it surpassed Montreal some years ago. Probably why. Old Quebec, and Old Montreal, are the part of the town that still has vestige of the pre Canada buildings and roads. Like Old Quebec, is the castle part, (so castle wall kind, Frontenac Castle, etc.) Old Montreal is the part near the River, with the Old Port. They are mostly tourist places now.
Lol but that is true !!! On the snowing days the temperatures are higher it is more confortable. Also Snow is kind of a insulation (I hope it’s the good word I googled it ) that make the winter days more confortable than the sunny clear winter days. Talk to people that makes Igloo! It keeps warm !
He's right. Snow makes it warmer. Plus, you can tell the temperature of the snow by the pitch sound of the snow. A higher squeak indicates colder temps. But crunchy snow means it's less than -17*c. No sound from the snow means it's close to 0*c. The colder the temp., the tighter the water crystals in the snow.
Duotang has two tangs. They are pairs of thin metal sheets that goes through holes in the paper and other side and are separated and folded down to secure the paper
canadian winters especially in the prairies is more like a layered cake of cold. start off at the end of october with rain/snow/cold and needing a coat and toque with mitts, then into november/december needing the boots and a few layers under your coat, then january/february needing snowpants and a bunch of layers of clothes under your coat so you look like a marshmallow and only can see your eyes peeking out. then back to a few layers under your coat in march/april until spring finally arrives and the snow melts

2:45 It's actually very common. All it takes is a consistent light snow fall for a while, then either warm up enough to cause freezing rain or just thaw enough snow to create a layer of Ice when the temps drop at night.
The 10 degree weather really depends on what time of year it happens. If it is 10 degrees Celsius in the fall, we are bundled up like we are about to travel to the arctic. However, it it is 10 degrees in the Springtime, definitely shorts weather. 🤣
Snow does feel better than the -30c
I’ve retired to Ireland after 40+ years in Canada. When I’m asked where in America I’m from, I say the Canadian part 😂.
Osoyoos in the Okanagan Valley is Canada's only desert, its quite lovely place a lot of orchards and vineyards.
I don't think you know the definition of a desert.
@@slake9727 If your going to try to challenge that information then you should probably know that Antarctica is also defined as a desert.
A desert is any area of land that receives no more then 25 centimetres (10 Inches) of rain across the entire year.
Im guessing your going to say a Desert is somewhere thats over 38°C or over 100°F which is true for an arid desert, the Okanagan is not an fully arid desert, its more a Shrubland Desert, it does though boarder the Osoyoos Desert.
BC is categorized as Temperate Rainforest, but I guess your definition of Rainforest includes killer piranhas, massive rivers and foliage from bedrock to canopy like the Amazon, which is a Tropical Rainforest.
Am thinking the badlands in Alberta are pretty dessert-like
@@williamallen6632 I can kinda see that, though I'd also say kinda more canyon or savannah shrubland feel, but still looks like a cool place
@@jesust.dud8 I looked it up for its been a long time since I've been there, the Osoyoos Desert is a part of the Okanagan Valley so it is still technically one desert, I was just getting confused on if it was Okanagan or Osoyoos.
Also Facts are and have been subject to change, allot of Facts that once existed ended up being debunked as being not fully true or completely false because the original evidence was not observed in the correct way it was meant to be observed was done incorrectly but gave a completely different result. Plus Facts can also be paradoxes and such with this classic example.
"Fact: This fact does not exist"
Old Montreal and Old Quebec are part of the original cities. Old Montreal ia about 375 years old and Quebec is the only walled city in N.A. saw Montreal and was amazed by the structures. if you get the chance come for the visit.
Tuque is actually a french word and it's kinda like a thick beanie.
With a pom-pom on top.
the snow does make it warmer. It's like insulations. Late Novembers are super dry and cold and chills to the bone. When the snow comes in, it feels slightly warmer.
Ice chippers are so normal. I don’t even think that others may have never seen one.
I know... right. All I thought was that Tyler lives where they don't get much snow, or freezing weather, if he doesn't know what an ice chipper is. 😂
Ice chippers are common place, like owning a rake and shovel.
I’m very familiar with the ice chipper everyone in mb should own one
Back bacon is a brined pork loin coated in corn meal
Did you know some people not from Canada actually put Canada keychains and things on their bags when they travel so that people think they're Canadian -- just because Canadians are so well-liked? As a Canadian, it actually makes me really happy to know that people think such good things of us 🍁🇨🇦
I’d say the reason Americans know of Toronto by name more than any other Canadian city is simply because of sports.. Toronto is the only Canadian city in both the NBA, and the MLB.. and one of six in the NHL. So not only do hockey fans hear the name often, so do basketball and baseball fans in the states ⚾️ 🏀
Will 2067 be the next time the Maple Laughs win the cup?
@@gordongoudie-fq8qg yes every 100 years! Just like Gord Downie’s song!
It’s more so because of the entertainment industry. The Toronto Film Festival and TO’s film industry.
Canada is slower to tear down and rebuild, as well as has generally been good about upkeep. So we have more period accurate buildings that can stand in for other times, but also new builds that can be dressed up as the current cities.
For those into comedy, Montreal’s Just For Laughs is the other major entertainment industry festival and city that’s made its mark internationally.
The audience for tv and film is bigger than that of sports. In the sense of those that would retain info about the name of a city. “My fav movie or tv show was filmed in __, Canada” vs anyone caring who their fav team usually beats 😛 (Which is/was more often the case, with the odd exceptions.)
7 teams in the NHL. Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Toronto, and Montreal.
And TIFF
It actually has to be relatively warm to snow. If it's really cold, rarely will it snow a great deal.
When I travelled Europe, I was treated like shit until people found out I was Canadian, not American.
The amount of free beer was insanity
I learned really early to make sure I carried something Canadian when travelling outside of Canada. My parents regularly had to travel internationally. I could recognize Canadians by our Tilley hat and clothes and the flag. Only Americans would automatically assume I was on their side, just because I was Canadian. I am on the side of people who don’t broadcast that they are better than anyone else because they are American.
When I was in grade 6, we did a pen pal project with a school in South Carolina.
My letter asked me what it was like to live in a igloo.
I get it, but in my opinion, that speaks worse about Europeans than it does Americans.
@Levek the BC accent I can see be mistaken for a US accent (definitely not Texas though). However, I’m doubting you’ve ever met someone from the east coast of Canada. In no way does someone from Newfoundland (or even New Brunswick) sounds like some from the US. Hell, Newfoundland basically has their own damn language it sounds so different.
@@terryomalley1974 I consider it a reaction to the constant barrage of US propaganda proclaiming themselves the best country in the world. Also, there’s a stereotype of a US tourist being overly loud and brash for a reason. Not all US tourists are like that but enough are that it paints an ugly picture for other countries.
Old Québec and Old Montréal were the foundation of the city, by the St-Lawrence fluvial, where the first settlers, well, settled
We call it peameal bacon. It used to be rolled in crushed peas. It's ham. It's special and lovely in a breakfast sandwich!
Your reactions are fantastic, keep up the good work ♪
I had a tour guide in Quebec City (old). Je me souveins: The streets are super narrow and were designed for horses instead of vehicles. Our tour bus couldn't turn one of the corner's near our hotel. This was also designed back when people emptied their chamber pots out of the windows onto the streets below. And apparently the men of said time allowed the women to walk closer to the road to avoid said splash zone.
Toonie was a comedic term when we had a nationwide census on what to name the new $2 coin when it came out. The $1 coin replaced the $1 bill some years earlier and was named the Loonie because it has a loon on it. The Toonie was simply lazy naming to go along with the Loonie. I still think we should have gone with the Bear Buck.
The Okanagan valley is Canada’s Napa Valley. My sister and Mom live in the south Okanagan which has about 150 wineries. Several lakes, orchards, vineyards and resorts.
Whistler is super well known for skiers.
When ‘pop’ was invented, it was called soda pop. Weird that south says soda and north says pop. Lol.
I live in NorthEast Ohio. My family and I say: "pop".
First video - had a similar issue this past winter. Package was delivered (in an envelope like in the video) and I wasn't notified. It snowed a bit overnight and the package was buried. They were clearing snow with a snowblower up to each door of my complex, and completely shredded the package in the snow. :( Luckily it wasn't anything too expensive!
Wow well that's a bummer :(
As a Canadian, buying milk in bags is just so normal I didn’t think it would be a problem for anyone else. We even have jugs that are made for holding these milk bags 😅
Not a Canadian thing, Milk bags are only sold in Ontario, Quebec and some places in the Maritimes. They are also sold in the Upper Midwest states of America. The primary way milk is sold in South America, Iran, Israel, India, Russia and continental European countries is bags as well.
We used to have the bags here in Saskatchewan when I was growing up (35 years ago).. also a milkman and a milk truck. Hadn't thought about that in years.. Wow I'm feeling old 😂
It's a TUque with a U. I don't understand why everyone spells it "toque." A toque is the white paperish hat chefs wear. Thank you for pronouncing it right Tyler ❤ as a Québecer (the word tuque is French Canadian) people pronouncing it "toque" drive me off the wall!!
I am Canadian and always love your Videos! You have a great personality !
Canadians consume a lot of media from the US. There are a lot of times when I’ve been watching something only to find out all the newer episodes/videos haven’t been released internationally yet, or something is only available on US versions of streaming sites. Shipping is a whole other beast. It can be so annoying to constantly be advertised things that have “free shipping” only to find out that it actually costs $10 if it even ships to Canada at all.
Old Québec and Old Montréal are the original parts of the cities that have survived since North America was founded. As well Parlement Hill is in Ottawa and it's quite a site to visit.
1:16 never happened to me but we don’t get are mail delivered to the home
You need to do more on BC... I was waiting to see how Tyler would pronounce "Okanagan."
I agree. That wasn't a great picture of what the Okanagan looks like.
Despite inflation, Montreal is still the most affordable big city in Canada. A one closed bedroom apartment is now over 1000$ (they used to be between 500-700$). Mind you, it all depends on the neighbourhood you live in. Downtown Montreal or The Plateau are crazy expensive.
Her place she was showing looked like it was downtown
I live in northwestern Ontario, it is may 24 and it is 7 degrees celsius, 4 degrees with the wind chill and we just received a frost advisory. It’s not always winter here in Canada but our summers can be very short.
Snow does indeed make it feel warmer. Lol
Quebec City is a great place. The old part of town is the historical part of the city. The rest is modern and "normal"
The "shovel" at the beginning, is an ice chipper, LOL Common here in Canada. To chip at ice on the stairs, driveway, sidewalks etc, lol
It is definitely true that it is warmer if it is snowing!
It is 100% true that snowy days are always hotter than not snowy days
In a sense, you still need a provincial healthcard to visit the doctor/hospital for free and, each province has their own. Although, your health card only works for your province in its full extent and can be used in other provinces with limitations.
And yes, "not available in your country" is quite common.
Okanagan (O-Kan-agan) Valley is all the Mountains that surround the huge Lake Okanagan part of Kelowna and West Bank British Columbia......you have a huge lake in the middle and mountains all around you, plus Warm Weather, Vineyards (Wine Country), Orchards, houses on the sides of the mountains with balcony's overlooking the lake, it Beautiful, my mom lives there, if I could put pictures on here of it I would!
Old Quebec is like having a miniature Paris in Quebec. It is really beautiful, I live near of there, and it is a historical part of the city. More than 400 years and built by the colon that came here. A really beautiful place to visit.
The difference between a folder, and a duotang is that there is metal tabs to hold your papers in place so that you can read it looks like a book.
The Okanagan Valley is one of our wine making regions. That image is of a vineyard where grapes for wine are being grown. 13:26 (Also well done on the pronunciation)
@the 20:42mark-yes, In very most cases, it is a lil warmer because of cloud cover! Open air in the winter under any circumstance, will be much colder, and also when it snows, it seems the temperatures warms up eh!🇨🇦🇨🇦
In Canada we don’t pronounce the second T in Toronto
20:39 - The snow fall DOES make the air feel warmer. With a good sweater, you can keep your jacket open and enjoy the cold while it snows. The next day is what we're all not looking forward to. 😂
Duotangg is different from a folder. It has those foldable metal prongs to keep three ring paper in place
The first duo-tang only had two metal prongs.
@@pikachu5188 when?
Hahahaha!!! I’m laughing because as a Canadian, this is our reality in the winter!! You’re so cute!!! Lol😂
Not for all Canadians!
Yes the snow does make it feel warmer, possibly because if theirs fresh snow on the ground theirs no wind chill.
It was 43 degrees here the other day in Nova Scotia so no it doesn’t snow here all that time. And we say sorry a lot here still in Nova Scotia and we are still nice but it depends on where you go
10*C is shorts and t-shirt weather (if the wind is calm)..0n a trip to FL in April, I was in shorts and t-shirt and was stunned to see how many Floridians were wearing sweaters and heavy jackets. It was 18*C.... lol
I've never worn shorts and a t-shirt in 10c° weather and never will lol. I've of course seen other people do it but most people don't.
... But 18c° is not sweater weather either! 😅
@@djdissi You are absolutely correct....LOL
@@djdissi If I have to do work outside, if it's a no wind day, I'll wear shorts and t-shirt. Rather be cool than over-heating. 10* isn't sit on the patio and have a beer weather, but is let's cut some wood or shovel out a new ditch in shorts and t's weather.
Yes, we do have milk that come in bags but we also have cartons of milk. I buy a 2 litre carton of milk.
Jasper and Banff are national parks 🏞️ close together in Alberta, near the majestic Rocky Mountains.
Old Québec and Old Montréal are distinctly French Canadian, and illustrates the first French 🇫🇷 settlers from France, and first settlers in Canada 🇨🇦
ong i just learned something! he’s right that the reason canadians don’t talk to you much is to be polite ! omgosh that’s why our neighbour upstairs seem so rude to us
Yes the old Québec and montreal are the part close to the saint-laurent river where the were first founded in 1608 and 1642 the building are the oldest of both cities.
Yes, it does tend to warm up when it snows. I full sunny day in January will mean temps are going to drop to well below 38 to 48 Celsius.
This is how our weather works most of the time.
It also gets very hot in the spring. Plus 30 degrees and above into summer. We almost don't have spring..we just smash into summer from winter.
The reason Americans all know Toronto is because you get to see the Yankee's play the BlueJay's and the Laker's play thr Raptors in Toronto and both Toronto teams won world championships
It's also known around the world because of TIFF
The snow does make it warmer. Usually when it is a bright sunny day in the winter it just means it is freezing outside.
Canadians walk a lot rain or shine all seasons. We do have a good tolerance to the cold weather but not so much to the hot weather. We do not go for walks in a sleeveless shirt, tuque and gloves and talk like we came out of a snail shell as the fellow did.
Duotang is a name brand, like Kleenex, or KD. It's named for (originally) only having the top and bottom tangs to fill standard three hole punch paper, allowing it to use less metal, be cheaper, and thus be more popular for school supplies.
I live in Victoria BC Canada and it is beautiful here if you ever get the chance visit for sure
Another great video! Thanks for sharing Canadian stuff!
Toronto is the economic center of the Canada, it surpassed Montreal some years ago.
Probably why.
Old Quebec, and Old Montreal, are the part of the town that still has vestige of the pre Canada buildings and roads. Like Old Quebec, is the castle part, (so castle wall kind, Frontenac Castle, etc.) Old Montreal is the part near the River, with the Old Port. They are mostly tourist places now.
Lol but that is true !!! On the snowing days the temperatures are higher it is more confortable. Also Snow is kind of a insulation (I hope it’s the good word I googled it ) that make the winter days more confortable than the sunny clear winter days. Talk to people that makes Igloo! It keeps warm !
He's right. Snow makes it warmer.
Plus, you can tell the temperature of the snow by the pitch sound of the snow. A higher squeak indicates colder temps. But crunchy snow means it's less than -17*c. No sound from the snow means it's close to 0*c.
The colder the temp., the tighter the water crystals in the snow.
Duotang has two tangs. They are pairs of thin metal sheets that goes through holes in the paper and other side and are separated and folded down to secure the paper
Old Quebec references the part ot the city that was surrounded by the wall
canadian winters especially in the prairies is more like a layered cake of cold. start off at the end of october with rain/snow/cold and needing a coat and toque with mitts, then into november/december needing the boots and a few layers under your coat, then january/february needing snowpants and a bunch of layers of clothes under your coat so you look like a marshmallow and only can see your eyes peeking out. then back to a few layers under your coat in march/april until spring finally arrives and the snow melts
Toronto is known most because the Toronto raptors and the Toronto blue jays are some of the main teams that ever play a lot in the American leagues
