  • Normals: the Canadian Climate Normals, 1991–2020, at Saskatoon Diefenbaker (Airport) (the closest location with all twelve months of temperatures).
  • Comparisons: the 2,500-plus towns and neighbourhoods of Canada, each read from its closest normals location; whole cities and reserves aren’t counted.
  • Not on this page: sunshine, not in ECCC’s 1991–2020 normals, and the effect of the town’s height, for which there is no figure.
