I agree the weather in Vancouver is the one singe most important reason its not a place I want to live, but obviously there are other reasons why I do live here right now. No mater how anyone feels about it, it cant change the fact that low amount of sunshine is responsible for a whole bunch of health issues and depression, specifically low amounts for extended periods of time like Vancouver gets.

Toronto as someone pointed out gets 110 more sunshine hours per year, that is a huge difference. BUT more importantly during winter when we already have short days to begin with the difference is even larger, and thats where the problem is.

Believe it or not Vancouver gets allot more sunshine in the summer months then Toronto, but those are the months we need it the least from a health point of view. Once we get to the winter months Toronto gets 30-40% more sunshine hours, thats is huge especially when your are talking about our latitude for those months.
