Victoria easily, without looking at the climates. There are no acceptable climates in Canada outside of coastal BC. Places like Osoyoos or Windsor are decent as well if you prefer mild winters. |

Sure; I'm planning on setting mine to Mt. Washington once I actually go there this winter. When will you go? March looks decent and even April is a solid wintry month there. next week looks cold and cloudy. Hoping this month, there will be a decent stretch. I'm more concerned with wind than temperatures; afternoon temperatures in the teens °F aren't terrible for hiking, but winds tend to be strong in winter, and with the active weather pattern we've had, hard to get mild + low wind. Last year I hiked it in February and it was 35°F and calm winds. And again in early October [well didn't bother to summit, just went around] with mid 30s and 50 mph winds. Not sure if it counts as a real winter hike but it's nice not to worry stuff going airborne when I open my bag or hands feeling numb in 20 seconds if I take off my gloves. Monday looked safe but not pleasant with subzero windchills mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/sites/obhistory.php?station=MWN&network=NH_ASOS&year=2018&month=1&day=29Monday before was better mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/sites/obhistory.php?station=MWN&network=NH_ASOS&year=2018&month=1&day=22it's also a 3.5 hour drive away, hard to motivate myself to go. Want to do some winter hiking and the peaks nearer are kinda small. |

Victoria is the only one that gets a passing grade from me. All the rest of the provincial and territorial capitals are solid F climates.

I voted for Toronto, liked the sharper differences. However, Victoria is not bad either.

I'm pleasantly surprised Toronto has so many votes. Victoria was a clear winner on C-D. No love for the prairies guys?  |

IqaluitSince there are no proper inland climates in Canada, the only tundra maritime on that list makes my choice. Fucken epic for hunting, too! Legendary, fierce fucken wind-chill. Love it!

it's "Iqaluit". Apparently "Iqualuit" means something derogatory in the local language Inuktitut.

Winnipeg probably has one of the most continental climates in the world. Unless I'm misinterpreting your definition of an "inland climate". |

What the  Jævla Kristus! Baker Lake does far better on my fucken maritime scale than it does on my inland counterpart, in fact! Cooma NSW, Southern Tablelands/Monaro is my ideal inland climate:  |

And have warm/hot summers as well.
