Two guys from Toronto die and wake up in hell. The devil stops
in to check on them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens and
toques warming themselves around the fire.

The devil asks, "Isn't it hot enough for you?"

They reply, "'Well, we're from Canada, the land of snow and ice
and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

The devil decides they aren't miserable enough and turns up the
heat. The next morning, there they are, still in parkas, toques and
mittens. The devil asks again, "It's awfully hot down here, can't you
guys feel it?"

Again they reply, "Well, like we told ya, we're from Canada,
land of ice and snow, and we're just happy for a chance to warm up a
little, eh."

This gets the devil steamed up. He cranks the heat up as high
as it will go. People are wailing and screaming. He finds the two
Canadians in light jackets, grilling sausages and drinking beer.
The devil is astonished. "Everyone down here is in misery, and
you two seem to be enjoying yourselves."

The two Canadians reply, "We don't get much warm weather in
Toronto. We've just got to have a cook-out when the weather is THIS
nice."

The devil is furious, and decides to turn all the heat off in hell.
The next morning, icicles are everywhere, people are unable to
do anything but wail, moan and gnash their teeth. The devil smiles.
He finds the two Canadians back in their parkas, toques and mittens.
But now they are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming
like mad men! The Devil is dumbfounded.

"When I turn up the heat you're happy. Now it's freezing and
you're still happy. What is wrong with you two?"

The Torontonians look at the devil in surprise, "Don't you know?
If Hell freezes over, it must mean the Leafs have won the Stanley Cup!"

Rotflmao!
 
Marc, which Canadian city are you from again????

Actually on a side note several Canadians and Swedes come down for my GF's company get-togethers. This "winter" (as they choose to call it here), they were running around in shorts, t-shirts and very happy, it was barely above freezing outside.

Even when I was a little kid I still rooted for Les Habitant. Tough to be a Montreal fan growing up in Toronto.

I'm still bummed they lost to Tampa Bay though!

I instantly thought of "The Cremation of Sam McGee" by Robert Service

Funny! I've heard a similar joke, but this one involving a South African guy from Durban who dies and goes to hell. I'll try to find it and post. Not diving, but South Africans SB'ers should get a chuckle.
