Hell did freeze over. The Eagles did regroup and play.

I cannot conceive of living in a place so cold. There must be some
really big pluses to make it worthwhile.

Probably a lot of truth to that. Wisconsin, Montana, Wyoming, upper peninsula of Michigan, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine. You don't hear about much crime and badness happening in those places. Actually you don't hear about much at all happening in those places. Canada I suspect is a pretty safe place overall. I'm sure the big cities in Canada are a bit less safe. But the big cities in Canada are probably safer than the big cities in the US.
