Usually, we’re a really nice people.

That’s what everyone says about Canadians, for the most part, outside this country.

And for MOST of the year, that’s 100% true.

THERE IS, HOWEVER, a time of year in which we’re all guilty of being NOWHERE Near the kind, loving folk of legend.

That time is NOW.

That desolate Hell-period between winter and Spring… where we keep getting tempted with Warm-ISH days filled with sunshine and the hint of a “Just wear a t-shirt, it’s all good” breeze.

Only to be pummeled by a snowstorm.

Enough is enough.

It’s time Mother Nature listened to us, so here we go…

 

DEAR WINTER,

You’ve overstayed your welcome here. It’s VERY rare to ever hear, or even read someone saying that… but it’s true.

You’re the 45 year old “kid”, still living with their parents, in the basement, destroying hot pockets like it’s their job, and always complaining to mom that their needs aren’t fully met.

Get up. Off your frigid butt, and go get a Job.

I hear there are other hemispheres to mess with.  Imagine the fun you could have if you travelled abroad!

Just think of the JOY you could go bring to Australia or a sunny state like Florida or California for at least a few weeks, before they write a similar letter. 

Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE hanging out with you, and you really DO bring out the best in our country every once in a while…

But it’s time to go.

We packed your bags FOR YOU, and we’ll send along anything you may have left behind, if you need us to.

We’ll pay for your plane ticket. Just pick the destination.

 

Sincerely,

 

Canada
