If it wasn't for all the fun activities, I wouldn't live where I do too. When I broke my back it was right after I bought this house and my wife was pregnant. I said to her if I can't ski we're out of here. I really thought I'd be in "my hell". I think if the only way you have to "deal" with snow is a chore and having to be extra careful walking and driving then yeah it takes all the fun and magic out of it. S.A.D. is a real thing. I get it sometimes. Hey it's close to spring. Only a few weeks left. Then mud season starts lol
the only thing i miss about Canada is ketchup chips which my mom sends me, a good timmies with a rez cigerette, i dont smoke cigs anymore so
I dont really have anything there to miss, i lived in the fridged fucking north, a place with massive amounts of poverty and drugs you couldnt fucking get away from if you tried,
No one ever leaves the small towns because there is NO opportunity
If i had stayed in canada id been dead 10 years ago probably.
Where i was from everyone worked at the steel plant, and if you didnt work there you barely found work unless you came froma family with money you could get nepotism, if you couldnt find work you turned to drug/ drug dealing.
the northern areas have a lot of gorgeous scenic beauty but they hold a dark dark inability to get out from poverty. there is little opportunity for young people who dont have paid college to get out
Anyone i know from my age range is still doing the same thing, living in the small desolate town and not able to get out, no real good careers,
few left for places like toronto etc. and the majority died from murder, suicide or drug use.
Those northern ontario cities are no joke.

im lucky in that we move every 4 years unless we ask for an extensions so i dont have to stay in this horrific state much longer.

We purchased a fullspectrum happy light that nearly simulates daylight - have it on on the kitchen counter before dark for a couple hours. It seems to help with S.A.D.

I thought you where still in Canada. Go to Hawaii I had a friend stationed there and he said it was amazing living there.
I left canada 10 years ago.
I dont get hawaii anymore that was last duty rotation no ability to get there now unless it came up again next time my spouse gets their pick list.

I've never tried that. I bet it'd help my wife.
Military doesnt REALLY give you a choice though, you get a rotation list rank it from 1 to whatever and hope for the best.
We were only in that position last time because the detailer fucked up so we got to chose our preferred top list, it was a rareity ,
We chose colorado over hawaii because of the strict probation period for dogs, and because we didnt think our kid would see his family (expensive travel) and high cost of housing, but in the end none of that mattered.
