I don't know about you, but I like to get out and explore when I'm on an overnight. Why sit in a hotel room all day when I can be hiking ocean cliffs, renting a bike, trying local food, or riding roller coasters at SeaWorld? Canadian cities are great for being outside. (Except in winter)

And Caesars are more than just a salad in Canada. (Canada’s improved version of a Bloody Mary )

Ottawa is awesome in the winter as long as you dress warm. The canal freezes over and you can ice skate for miles and miles.

Also remember that they are all $9 Canadian rubles plus commie tax for a tulip glass at the hotel bar. I kid. But not really.

Climate change has pretty much ended this. I think they allow skating for only a couple weeks now.

Don’t be dense. Climate change has only risen the earths average temperature about half of a degree C since the industrial revolution. So I highly doubt that claim you are trying to make...you are starting to sound like Symbian.

Found it.

Looks like it is available more than a few weeks in the winter.

Ah the old strawman argument...

I never said it was fake. Your missing the point. I’m talking about the half of a degree C that has ALREADY happed...not FUTURE events (like what your article is talking about.
