Edmonton myths :

Edmontonians do NOT live in igloos. (The nearest igloo is probably several thousand miles north, though Santa has been spotted hanging out at a couple local bars).

Edmonton does NOT have snow all year round. There is usually snow on the ground from late October to late March (5 months), but when the snow decides to snow hard... it is.. brutal.

Edmonton police are NOT Mounties, dressed in red uniforms. Canada DOES have Mounties, but they only wear red for ceremonial occasions. Edmonton has its own police force, and they look and sound like cops in most American cities. The Mounties (RCMP) have a limited presence in Edmonton and they are more active in rural areas . . . minus the red uniforms.

Edmontonians do NOT speak French. People in Quebec speak French, but in Alberta everyone speaks English. (Well, there is a tiny minority that speak French, but most of them speak English also.)
