One easy way to distinguish between longtime Canadians and newcomers is by their choice of outfit in cold weather. For me, in 45 degrees fahrenheit, I bundle up with at least two layers or a small puffer. My neighbors, on the other hand, opt for shorts and long-sleeve shirts. If you were to take a photo of a crowded street, it would be hard to tell the exact temperature based on the observed clothing.
