What does /int/ think of Inuvik, the largest town in Canada north

Looks like every other shithole in the Territories.

>hordes of mosquitoes every summer

>>69950990
Looks nice to be honest, would be comfy to live in one of those houses

Mosquitoes pretty much stop existing after you go far enough North. They can't survive the 9 months of Winter.

Dude what.

Nothing special, but then again nobody goes north of the Arctic Circle for the towns

I'm not joking, people call it "the bug line".

Once you hit a certain point heading North, the bugs just...disappear. It's partly due to the cold, but also because they have no reason to be there (tundra, very little can grow (which is why people live so far South), and what can grow doesn't support enough life for bugs to try and survive the Winters for).

See OP. Notice how the ONLY vegetation is fir trees and very thin grass (which has no reason to be that thin since it's in the wild)? See how there are no farms? It's because nothing lives there (well, except for some elk, bears, wolves, and aquatic shit).

Not sure how it is in Europe as you go farther North, but here once you're halfway up any of the provinces from the border, insects pretty much don't exist (not those annoying to humans, at least).

Not as comfy as Norilsk either

That's curious because Lapland is on the same latitudes as the most northern parts of continental Canada, but it's the place with the most mosquitos in Finland during summer. It's warmed up by the gulf stream sure but it freezes in the winter just like any arctic place on the planet.

Latitudes aren't everything. Canada is very heavily affected by the Great Lakes (which produce their own climate), the Rocky Mountains, and Hudson Bay. The terrain is different as well, and doesn't do well at supporting vegetation farther North.

Winnipeg is at a similar latitude to Berlin, but it's a frozen shithole that looks like it should be in Russia.

It really depends on where you go. Bear in mind that Canada is the second largest country on Earth (behind Russia), by area. You can drive for over a thousand kilometers and still be in the same province.
