@JulzMighty - good on ya m8. Toronto ("TO") is pretty chilly in December. Usually by mid-December snow should be a couple of feet deep. Remember to bring a parka, mitts, and a coat for your computer. I live about 30 Km east. If you have any questions, drop me a pm.

@Captain_Kiyaku - es ist gut. Vancouver should be starting to build up the hype for the 2010 Winter Olympics. It's a beautiful city for the most part. I lived near the University for a while many, many years ago. Check out Gas Town during the day time (not such a good place to be at night) and Granville Island. The last time I was there, they had a really good seafood restaurant - I think it was called the Sandbar. You might want to trying hiking in the Lynne Valley gorge.
