Canada has a reputation for being a very cold climate. What is the climate of BC like?
• A: BC has a very diverse climate from actual desert in the interior to the rain forests of the coast and the tundra of the north. Summers are warm and pleasant, with averages much like the US North Western States and the winters on the coast in Victoria and Vancouver are wonderfully mild. Whistler is in the mountains and gets spectacular amounts of snow but doesn’t get extreme cold. We are in the northern hemisphere so the height of summer is July and the coldest month is January.
