Where is the warmest place to live in Canada?

Question

I'm considering migrating to Canada from the US...

Answer 1

the warmest overall climate in canada is on vancouver island, victoria in particular.

however the warmest summers are in the okanogan, bc.

Answer 2

the best place is british columbia canada in the Okangan area like  kamloops there is many orchards and cherry fields or if you want quiet i live on Salt Spring Island we get snow about 4 days a year and the island is a community based island where stress of the city is no where to be seen

Answer 3

About ten years ago, a similar analysis of weather winners was undertaken, albeit for fewer cities and categories, using an older set of climate data (the "normals" from 1961 to 1990). In comparing weather winners now and then, it is noteworthy that Kamloops BC remains the city with the warmest summers, and Yellowknife is still the coldest year-round and in winter. This northern city is still the place to be if you like your summers sunny. Also maintaining their weather reputation: Victoria still has the least amount of snow, Thompson MB the greatest number of freezing days and Vancouver the fewest freezing days. Prince Rupert BC is still the wettest city but, in the meantime, got even wetter. St. John's NL remains the wind and fog capital of Canada and Windsor continues to be the city with the most summer humidity and the most smoke and haze.

Answer 4

I think victoria, bc

Answer 5

I have to agree with the first answerer but British Columbia is way warmer than Ontario. I've lived in both.

Just so you know though...Canadians aren't so fond of americans so you may want to rethink that move.

I hope you received my reply to your email. Hopefully I was able to explain my answer better in it.

Answer 6

I would think probably spomewhere in BC...maybe Vancouver Island. You should definitely move to Canada though! ):

Answer 7

with me =]

Answer 8

maybe alaska or nunavut

Answer 9

The warmest Canadian city is Vancouver, which is just north of Seattle.

But Vancouver gets a lot of rain.  And if you don't like this kind of thing.  Then the city of Windsor in the province of Ontario is the southern-most part of Canada.  And it is about as warm as the US city of Detroit is.  Because Windsor is just across the river from Detroit.  If you stay in Windsor, then you'll be able to go to Detroit and Dearborn for shopping.  

Answer 10

Somewhere near the border between the us and canada

Answer 11

anywhere close to the border. but in the middle of the border would be best.

Answer 12

as many here have said... the west coast (vancouver, victoria area) has very mild winters with only a few days snow but it rains alot in the winter.. much like seattle.  But you dont have to shovel it!  

Answer 13

h**l!!!!!! :-)

Answer 14

Victoria and Vancouver British Columbia.  Consistently, these places have Canada's mildest climates because the easterly winds.  It's the same reason why England and Montreal are on the same latitude, but have much different climates.

Answer 15

victoria BC.

Answer 16

where Geddy Lee lives

no just kidding

anything on the west coast(pacific)

Answer 17

Ontario

Or

British Colombia

Answer 18

Salt spring Island near Vancover gets more sun than Vancover or Seattle. Hardly ever gets below 28 in the winter and then that is when a storm moves thru or at night in the dead of winter.

Answer 19

The warmest sustained winter temperatures are in south-coastal BC.  (Greater Vancouver or southern Vancouver island.)  The hotest sustained summer temperatures are probably in the Okanagan Valley of south-central BC.  You can get extremely hot weather during the summer months in pretty much any part of the country.  Toronto can get 'stinkin' hot' in the summer but for sustained, predictable and consistent hot weather the south-okanagan is the best bet. South-coastal BC does get cool and damp during the winter time but stays above freezing for the most part.  Snow is not unheard of but usually is melted away in a couple of days.
