I have had 10 family members move to Kelowna in the last 8 years (bw my family and my wifes). They all love it, but they do comment about the adjustment to lack of sunshine in winter and also the "new norm" of smoked out summers from wildfires(3 consecutive years now)...they also try and plan get aways out of kelowna back to Sask in summer, as it gets crazy busy/crowded there in the summer.

What that news story does emphasize is the importance of Saskatoon needing to provide the best possible quality of life options for residents/businesses to overcome our either real (or perceived) negative climate. This means downtown arenas, libraries, pro sports, cultural amenities, winter activities and amenities, art galleries, professional theatre, etc. We have some of this, but need to add more and improve on what we have. It is called "investing" in your city for the future!
