Canada shares, with Russia and the Scandinavian nations, the extreme seasonal variations of the northland. No England this; we experience a long, hard winter and a short, wet spring (except, as fortune would have it, the present year). Thus, Canadian poets rejoice when summer comes. The sun returns from her long sojourn to the south, and crops are planted in hopes ofta sumptuous harvest.
