Winter slow? Not here. January to mid-June are peak months. April and May being the best. Summer, in the red. Fall, slight increase getting out of the red. December picks up nicely with Xmas coming.

Yes, your distributor should be able to give you some stats on local trends.

isnt canada mostly wintery and cold how hot does it actually get in summer for some reason i picture snow when i think of canada

March to end of June should be good, barring any national or international events which affect the economy, such terrorist activity, high gas prices, etc. July through September are ok, October should be closed, November picks up a little, December decent, January too hungover to notice, February good. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Pretty good description, but here it usually takes of at the beginning of February

Most parts of Canada are not any worse than the Northern States. I am always amazed when I watch Fox Rochester, and the weather report almost matches ours in Timmins. Palm trees? Not here.
