THAT one cracks me up as we did have to go to school growing up when it was -30. You just had to wear a scarf that day. LOL.
My wife is from Thunder Bay, I call her a Northern Snob, because she's always laughing at everyone down here. Then when my mom comes up from Windsor, she REALLY laughs (she still talks about the day my mom was wearing a sweater and we were wearing shorts.)
