Lol as a Canadian I wish I could say they were funny but sorry NOT really. Some made no sense whatsoever. You seem to think it’s always cold and snowy, Yup , your wrong. Lived for a few years in Manitoba beautiful Province and great spring and summers. I wouldn’t send these jokes to my friends cause they’d think I was rather lame!!!!! Good try though
