Here are 30 winter memes to put a smile on your face even in the depths of the Montreal cold season. As much as Montrealers love to complain about winter, we all know it's part of what makes our city special. Visit MTLBlog for more headlines. With the winter season in full-force here in Montreal, sometimes the snow can weigh heavy on our hearts, as it does on the trees in the park and the roofs of nearly-condemned buildings across the city. This is why we've come with the gift of laughter. If Santa didn't bring you what you wanted this year, at least you have these winter memes to get you through the coldest season in Montreal. Sure, you may say winter is winter wherever you go... but we know this isn't true. Montrealers revel in the snowy season when they aren't using it as an excuse to vent their everyday frustrations. The snow brings the city to life in a new way... we're brought together in our struggle to stay upright while walking on the sidewalks. We find strange and special excuses to gather together in freezing sub-zero temperatures with the promise of a couple bonfires shared amongst thousands. Winter in Montreal is a special place, and a snowstorm makes it even more so. Thus, I present to you 30 winter memes to help you laugh through your tears during this Montreal snowstorm. The sun has abandoned us We are alone with the cold moon now. This is fine, we are used to the abandonment, and welcome the sun back with fawning and festivities every spring.

We all remember the snows of April, 2019, right? All we can do is pray for the day off When the mayor of Montreal postponed Halloween due to a pretty severe wind and rain storm, we knew the jokes would never end. Laval jokingly postponed Christmas due to lack of snow a month later. View this post on Instagram Snow day tomorrow...

She's the only one who can save us from work now... and with all sardonicism, she'll likely never do it again. That's what you get, ingrates. MRW the forecast is upgraded to 20 inches of snow tonight. pic.twitter.com/1qyl7V1lXJ— Tim Stevens (@Tim_Stevens) January 19, 2019 Snow days are rare as an adult, which means there's no point even checking the weather. You better just start trudging to the metro and hope you get swept away by a snowplow en route. You've done it before, you'll do it again. Layer up and shut up, amirite?

Brilliant. Who wouldn't appreciate the desire to keep that pristine blanket of snow as-is? Snow can bring out the child in us Yes, that desire to protect the pristine blanket of snow is often followed by the intense desire to run through it and cause as much disruption as possible.

The wonder. The curiosity. The desire to skip out on responsibilities and go tobogganing.

Or... bring out the Scrooge in us Yes, the snow has the power to bring out the Scrooge in us, too.

Ever write something nasty in the snow on a car's windshield? Powerful stuff. Plus, it will either be swept away or covered over in more snow in no time. Animal instincts come to life Just like we find our inner child in the winter months, our animal instinct is reignited in the midst of a snowstorm. Casually mentioned to the dog that it might snow this morning and he's been sat like this for 20 minutes now. #snowday pic.twitter.com/0SWgANLKdr— Neth (@nethknowles) November 11, 2019 Do you love snow as much as Dibs the cat does? ❄️❄️❄️ pic.twitter.com/t3wATYoFXy— ABC 13 News - WSET (@ABC13News) November 11, 2019 I KILL YOU, MR. SNOW! I KILL YOU GOOD! pic.twitter.com/WLeyLgGI88— pre-Christmas ghost dog (@JeetoCheesus) November 11, 2019 There is really nothing better than snow zoomies, and I encourage you to give it a go next time you find yourself on a crisp and untouched blanket of snow. Anything to stay off the roads Really, I think any winter activity is worthwhile if it keeps you (and me. and everyone.) off the roads during the winter months.

So send this article to someone you know that hates winter and let them know you're here for them, at the very least through the medium of memes. It's a very strange and trying time of year We're all just trying to do our best.

Sure, a snowstorm sucks while it's happening... but without it, there would be no snow angels. Stay safe out there, Montreal! And try your best to enjoy it.
