18 Struggles All Canadians Understand About "Sprinter"

    Canadian weather gods: keeping you on your toes since 1867.

    1. On acclimatizing:

    You know you're getting used to the cold when it's 2°C and you don't have to wear a jacket or hoodie outside. #CanadianSpring ?

    2. On mixed emotions:

    The breeze is freezing....but the sun feels good #sunshine #canadianspring

    3. On being caught off-guard:

    I swear it was spring when I came to work last night. #NLwx #nurseproblems #shiftwork #imfreezing #canadianspring

    4. On needing to see a therapist:

    April gives me trust issues, one week it's below freezing then the very next week it's 20+ degrees outside. #CanadianSpring lol

    5. On questions we need answered:

    If April showers bring May flowers, what does April Snow bring? I mean aside from disappointment... #CanadianSpring

    6. On soaking up the sun:

    Only in #Canada do you have to shovel snow off the deck so you have room to put a chair in the sun to tan. #canadianspring

    7. On appreciating the little things:

    After sitting through an outdoor soccer match I’m thankful for car seat heaters. #CanadianSpring

    8. On (barely) containing your anger towards the Canadian weather gods:

    Today is one of those days you want to just stand outside with a flamethrower pointed at the sky... #StahpFreezingRain #CanadianSpring

    11. On constant disappointment:

    Buy a new barbecue. Snow. Get the bike out of storage and ready to ride. More snow. #canadianspring

    12. On language lessons:

    For anyone who isn't Canadian: Today is known as "Heck yes, We Survived Another Winter Day". You may know it as "Spring" #CanadianSpring ☀️
