Canada no longer world’s coldest country

Canadians pride themselves on battling cold winter weather, and cold snaps across the country this year have proven particularly challenging. So they may have been disappointed when the Globe and Mail reported today that Canada is no longer the coldest country in the world.

Apparently that was discovered about a dozen years ago by climatologists who realized that the break-up of the Soviet Union left Russia a stand-alone country, and its winter weather is more frigid than Canada’s. Who knew? Boo hoo.
