Canadian groundhogs make seasonal prediction

Canadian groundhogs make seasonal prediction, Groundhog Day in Canada: who will have six more weeks of winter?, Shubenacedie Sam and Wiarton Willie both agreed on their forecast for the rest of winter. Every year, Canadians eagerly await to find out if their local rodent will spot his shadow in the time-honoured tradition of Groundhog Day. The question is, which groundhogs will prognosticate six more weeks of winter, and which ones will give Canadians hope that spring is just around the corner?

Shubenacadie Sam

Nova Scotia's favourite furry friend didn't see his shadow, promising East Coasters an early spring.

Punxsutawney Phil

While he isn't Canadian, he is arguably the most famous of all the groundhogs, so it's worth mentioning that this U.S. groundhog thinks that there will be six more weeks of winter in store for the United States.

Wiarton Willie

It's good news for Ontario, though: Willie didn't see his shadow, either, so Canadians are 2 for 2 when it comes to an early spring.

Fred la Marmotte

The rodent that hails from Val-d'Espoir, Quebec, doesn't have such a rosy forecast for Quebecers. Fred saw his shadow, so La Belle Provence will be in winter's grip for another six weeks.
