Bugger Quebec, mate. There's way too many French-Canadians there.

There are plenty of awesome places in Ontario where you can have an awesome white Christmas. Try Ottawa, Toronto, Niagara Falls (and not the U.S. side; it's awful) and Kingston. They're all nice cities of differing sizes (e.g. Toronto is bigger than Sydney, Ottawa is roughly the same size as Adelaide, Niagara Falls is beautiful around Christmas time, and Kingston is an awesome smaller city with beautiful limestone buildings.

No matter what you decide, a white Christmas is always special.

Yes. Surprisingly I experienced my only white Christmas in Australia - at Olinda in the Dandenong Ranges to Melbourne's east on Christmas Day 2007.
Here is a shot of our back yard on the day:

I liked Quebec, but I reckon it would be absolutely freezing there in December.

Quebec City is amazing in December mate, I'd do the Xmas season there again before Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa and Niagara Falls.

I will be in Lapland early December this year... Bloody expensive. But I am sure it will be amazing... Anyone else been there?
