We Canucks may have a mythic international reputation (and self-image) as a nation of hardy winter warriors who joyously, skate, ski, ice fish and trek our way through months of cold and snow, but in recent decades our love affair with winter seems to be going sour. What's happened to our Canadian "cold" genes? Have we gone soft and lost our "winter edge"? These are the opening questions of Life Below Zero, a light-hearted yet thought-provoking new documentary about Canadians and our changing relationship with winter.
