For the elementary school teachers,
Ever thought how immigrant children from warmer climates now living in colder climates adjust on the playground?
And there are tons of them in the major Canadian cities!! From southern Asia, the Carribbean etc. As long as the children are dressed warmly and playing/socializing with others, it's a good thing.
I witnessed first-hand the delight of my cousins' 2 sons, ages 9 & 7 at the time, of their first snowflurries, 3 months after they immigrated to Canada from southern China...which is tropical. It really was something to see. They wanted to be outdoors to play.
(And people complain that immigrants can't adjust, assimilate. Good heavens.)
