Nelson by an absolute country mile. Interior BC has some of the best climates in the country and Nelson is no exception with those great temperatures, and it even has better precipitation than much of the rest of the interior. Solid climate, one of the best in Canada.
St. John's, on the other hand, is one of my least favourite climates in the country, even including the Territories. The horrendous weatherbox stats speak for themselves, but what they don't tell you is that St. John's is also the windiest of the major cities in Canada (another huge negative for me). No thanks!

Completely agreed. Nelson's climate is pretty awesome, though I'd like to see summers a bit warmer/drier and winter cooler/snowier. St John's has a pretty horrific climate outside of Dec/Jan/Feb, IMO. March and April are still the dead of winter and summers are cold and wet. Hell, even Yellowknife has better summers than St John's. |

Still prefer St John's despite the summer.
Nelson and southern BC as a whole is too prone to drought and fire.

Massive fires in the Cariboo/Chilcotin/Bulkley-Nechako regions back in summer 2018. Prince George was choked in heavy smoke and ash for over a month that year. |

Even NWT, Yukon, and parts of Alaska get smoke pretty bad occasionally. Lots of dead trees between Fairbanks and Coldfoot when I was there. |

Lots of dead trees between Fairbanks and Coldfoot when I was there. 2014 was the year of the smoke apocalypse in the NWT. It was pretty horrific up north in Yellowknife that summer: nationalpost.com/news/canada/yellowknifes-lost-summer-heavy-smoke-from-wildfires-makes-it-a-city-under-siege |

Nelson is much better. It even has a summer (sort of), eh!
