    Dude, I might be a city boy but I can handle my ass in the great Canadian wilderness any day. I had to do a 2 week long training winter exercise all the way up in the Thunder Bay area once IN FEBURARY! And what's even more hilarious is that a bunch of American national guard units came up to work with us. You should have seen how unprepared they were with their tan desert boots! We had to lend them our mukluks and other winter kit lol.

    Thats f'ing cold by any Canadian standards!

    I used to work in TBay on the railroad...outdoors in the winter! Try building skeletonized track in 39 below weather. MY boots were so frozen that when it was time to enter the cook car, i had to get another dude to help pull my boots off! (no boots in the dining car)

    Man I know exactly what that's like lol. I remember this one time I was outside at night offloading snowmobiles off one of our trucks and it was SO COLD that night I lost feeling in my face about 2 minutes after stepping out of the cabin to help offload, and it was so bad that I couldn't talk. I sounded like a retard when I tried to talk, couldn't feel ANY facial muscles.

    I'm on the far left, and as you can see its only the Canadians that are happy to be in the cold:

    Hahaha! I freaking HATE that parka, mine is sitting in my basement and I don't think i've ever used it. I like the goretex cold weather jacket (the one i'm wearing in the picture) because it has the zipper vents under the armpits in case you start to overheat and sweat. The parka doesn't have that because its old, but its still warmer than anything. You can easily pick up one of those parkas at an army surplus store though. If there's no surplus stores around you, go here and you can have it shipped to you: http://www.heroarmysurplus.com/canad...ka-p-4256.html

    That one is the real deal, look at the price tag.

    I actually live a few hours from tbay.

    January with the wind chill and working outside building a group home for kids was a nightmare. I was surprised no one walked out from that job. Gotta love Canadian winters!
