Climate

• Canada's climate varies wildly based on
  geography, from perma-frost in the north to four
  distinct seasons towards the equator. In this
  region the temperature can climb up to 35 degrees
  Celsius in the summer and descend to a chilly -25
  degrees Celsius during winter.
• Canada's climate is characterized by its
  diversity, as temperature and precipitation
  differ depending on where you are and what time
  of year it is. Other than the North where it's
  above freezing for only a few months a year, most
  Canadian cities are within 300 km of the southern
  border, where mild springs, hot summers and
  pleasantly crisp autumns are common during the
  majority of the year.

  CN Tower was classified as one of the Seven
  Wonders of the Modern World!Toronto, Ontario
