Temperatures in the summer around 40=C2=B0C are possible on the prairies and in Ontario, at least. Winters tend to run the gamut from bitterly cold to damned cold, though there are exceptions, such as Vancouver and Victoria, where it rarely reaches freezing. Roughly 90% of the population live within 160km (100 miles) of the US border; as you get farther north, it gets colder, and Canada extends up to the north pole. Currently (~20:30 Vancouver time), it's a balmy 5=C2=B0C in Vancouver (and Calgary, amazing!), 2=C2=B0C in Montre= al, -30=C2=B0C in Alert, Nunavut, -39=C2=B0C in Tuktoyaktuk, NWT, but that do= esn' t include the wind chill. If we're smart, we'll go ahead with the annexation of the Turks and Caicos Islands this time. Even in Japan you must have quite a range of temperature; it snows on Hokkaido, doesn't it?
