Hey Jelb. I probably live a few blocks from where you did in calgary. I recently bought a condo on what used to be the military base, CFB Currie Barracks.
We have a chinook going on right now... Yesterday it was -29 with the windchill today it's +2! Not warm enough for shorts but still better than yesterday.
Originally from just south of Charlotte, NC. Went to University of South Carolina (the original usc) for four years in Columbia, and moved to Florence, SC in August.
And yes, I don't think I could survive those cold cold winters either. When its 50 here I start whining.

And yeah, Ontario's never quite as cold as Alberta was, but we're rockin' about -15 to -20 with the windchill I think in the last little bit...
Plus 2, that's some nice weather, though! Not a phenomenal chinook, but decent!
I live in northern Manitoba (the prairies are a good 600 km's south of us) -- I'm 5 degrees latitude away from the arctic circle actually and there isnt much up here. So it's -50 with the windchill right now... only -35 without the wind I grew up here.. did university in Vancouver, BC and now I'm back living in the winter weather testing capital of north america (and -40 celsius is -40 F... it's a quirky little fact that the two systems meet up at that point)
Right now, I live in Oxford, MS (Hotty Toddy, y'all).
I grew up in the MS Delta, moved to Alaska when I was in junior high, moved to New Orleans to do university/grad school, went and lived all across Europe (farming work-stay programs) for a few years and now I'm back in the Magnolia State in professional school.

Though I still summer in Alaska.
Hotty Toddy, whatever I'm a state fan. I grew up in Yalobusha county, so not too far from Oxford!
