  1. British Columbia in November? Vancouver is wet, cold, miserable. Vancouverites like to claim that it has the best climate- it rains about 7-8 months of the year, but the rest of the province- The Okanagan, The Kootenays, Vancouver Island get proper winters- pretty good snowfalls. The mildest climate is the Sunshine Coast- Gibson's Landing, Sechelt and Powell River. Rains but not as cold- the big weather fronts are broken up by Vancouver Island. I lived in Vancouver for 30 years before moving to Australia, I remember it when I left as crass, boring and damned expensive. That being said, don't visit Canada for the cities, visit it in the summer and autumn for the wilderness. It's pretty amazing then. Autumn in Ontario- Muskoka and the Lakes regions. Stunning.
