This largely depends on where you live on either side of the pond. Moving from Canada to Germany, the biggest problem was not the lack of daylight, but the lack of winter sports. Winter here is just a worse summer.

I teach people to schedule their vacations for January-March, not the pleasant summer months.

Even from Canada, you probably moved north. Toronto is as far north as Nice, on the French Mediterranean. Of all the major Canadian cities, only Vancouver is as far north as southern Germany.

I did, but it's still a minor issue compared to the lack of things that make winter enjoyable.
