IT'S STILL COLDER HERE DAVE: David Janes argues that wind chill doesn't matter "unless you get stuck outside without clothing" which isn't completely true but just true enough. That said Dave, the actual low temperature here in Sudbury is still nearly always lower than Toronto's temperature with or without the wind chill.

ESR's editor at large, Steve Lendt, who currently lives in Toronto did email me, though, to say that Toronto's cold is different. Steve, who lived in Sudbury for many years before turning to the dark side, reported to me yesterday that Toronto's cold gets inside your bones. Now, Steve was born in Toronto before moving here so my theory is that no matter how long he lived here, he's still a Torontonian. You know what that means right? Exactly.
