Missing winters is one thing, being obligated to wear full winter gear for 4 months a year is another.

4 months only? I like your optimism. :)

I don't know for sure either way - I only arrived at the end of February, and last winter was unusually intense and long in both Montreal and the northeast US where I was just before.

Still, if it is just 4 months, that's pretty close to canonical season length!

They offer lots of coping mechanisms too like the underground city in the downtown core and good home heating, plus lots of outdoor and indoor activities to make the winter enjoyable.
