Description
Canadians love the weather. It's our favorite topic of conversation. And the Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar is one of this country's most popular and best—selling compilation of facts, dates, and stories about our climate. Did you know that rain increases productivity? Or that cold kills more than heat? Or that the longer a porcupine's quills are in the fall, the snowier the winter will be?
