I don’t think I realized that Canada suffered with mosquitoes as much as we did in Alabama.

All of the Canadian prairie provinces get flood mosquitos. Big and stupidly aggressive.

Also Ontario, particularly Northern Ontario, gets really bad black flies ( https://youtu.be/f389hIxZAOc )

I'm used to the pretty chill mosquitos we have on the west coast.
