    The main reason Canadians complain about 25 degree days is that none of the houses have air conditioning. My parents are only getting AC this year becuase the heat dome tried to murder them last year. They've lived in BC for 30 years and always said anyone who needed AC was a pussy since it was only hot for a week.

    But Canadians are weirdly comfortable with freezing temperatures.

      That is definitely a BC thing. Being near a coast and not in the center of a large continent will moderate your temperatures. Southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and Southwestern Ontario can get hot and humid for more than a week and prompt more than a handful of the population to have AC.
