I spent the night of January 2nd/3rd 2014 in a town called Val d-Or,Quebec (well north of Montreal). When I arrived in the town at about 6PM on the 2nd it was about -30F (don't know what that is in Celsius). It was cold! The first thing I did on arrival was go to a gas station.The first station I went to told me that their pumps weren't working...they were frozen. I got gas at the next one I visited.

Next morning,while checking out,the TV in the lobby said it was -40,as did the display on my dashboard (-40F and -40C are,I discovered on that very day,the same).

You talk about heat? Let's talk about cold in Montreal or Ottawa! ;-)

Ottawa/Montreal can be cold at times. But not as much as northern Quebec or even Quebec City.

But both are hot and high humidity in summer. People even from the Southeast or Florida are surprised how hot they are in the Summer.

I grew up in Vancouver, and in England, so i don’t like the heat.
