I was out there in September doing the Canadian ATPL stuff. First Class organisation very organised with a good fleet.

The weather in January is like the arctic, not a good time of year for flying unless you get some clear days and then the viz is outstanding. Pretty much for the next couple of months it just snows!

A nice route is over to Debert which is an ex mil wartime airfield with a flying school of it's own.

My friend was over from Canada for the last week and sent me a photo this evening of the couple of feet of snow they have at the moment.

Canada is a stunning country with the most friendly people and the exchange rate and no hassle on visa etc make it a more desirable destination than the states.

Nova Scotia is where I intend on migrating to in the next few years!
