In general, which region is colder in the winter, southeast Canada or southeast Sweden? Stockholm is 59'N and Toronto is at a latitude of 43'N, if that helps.
Their (winter) temps are still rather similar though:
Toronto would feel warmer because you'd actually be able to feel the sun on your cheeks. I guess Stockholm is less susceptible to intense cold though with less variability in temps.
Toronto would feel colder on windy and cloudy winter days I would think. On clear windless days it would feel warmer during daytime, but colder at night for sure.
Absolutely Toronto for the vast majority of the 24 hour-day.
For a few hours in mid-day in the sun Toronto would feel warmer, but Stockholm and this entire region where I live (my place averages -4C lows in January) it's completely bonkers mild most of the time in winter. We can't get the kind of big snaps here by the coast as inland areas can and the same goes for inner Stockholm.
I have never been to Stockholm but I have been through a Toronto winter and though it was very cold at times, there were also milder periods with rain, and many sunny days overall. Also since the overall atmosphere is quite dry and the days are similar in length to France or Italy, it does not feel that bad. Overall it reminded me more of being in the Alps.
It did not feel drastically colder than where I grew up, but then I love snow and love to spend time in the Alps in the winter.
It's not like Stockholm is supremely milder or anything, and it is certainly way darker.

Well, they have had record lows below -30C for two months straight.
I would suspect though during the day time, the higher amounts of sunshine hours and the higher sun angle would make it feel warmer in Toronto.
can you feel the sun at those frigid temperatures ? would be like trying to heat your house with a light bulb lol
