Not just "south", but actually way south; Toronto is about 43.5 N; Central London is 51.5 N. There's 60 nautical miles between each degree of latitude, so for an 8 degree difference, that's a bit more than 888 km.

Roughly the same distance further north from London and you arrive at Uppsala (north of Stockholm), and St Petersburg.

Toronto is on roughly the same latitude as Cannes, Nice, Toulouse and Monaco -- the Côte d'Azur / French Riviera.

Edmonton, Alberta is between Manchester and Leeds in England, and close to the latitude of Hamburg.

If you really want to bend your noodle, consider that Los Angeles is at the same latitude as Rabat, Morocco and Miami is at the same latitude as Luxor, Egypt.
