And to think that I live some way north of Moncton (Kuujjuaq/Inukjuak/Churchill range) and have frequent green Christmases
Evidence of how much Eastern North America is cursed in the winters. The Gulf Stream goes by here heading for Northern Europe. It's too bad it couldn't direct warm gulf air into Atlantic Canada in the middle of January.

But coastal Europe still only has an average of 9-10 C on those latitudes in France. So although very warm, the coastal span of St. John's/Nantes is not comparable to the differences between Halifax and Santander

Yes it's amazing that winters here equal 64 N Sweden. At least the winter days aren't as short.
It's true that one good thing about Moncton is that it's not as cold as Quebec City. But the snow is horrible. It's too bad that temperatures aren't the same here as Santander.

Santander is at 43 N so that's not so strange. Halifax and Yarmouth are better comparisons since they're coastal.
Quite a bit inland on 46 N but with a 6.8/0.2 January.
But yeah I guess going ten degrees north it'd be similar to Nain in terms of temps during winter, a little bit warmer summers in Moncton due to being inland and less sea-effect snow as would fall on Halifax and Sydney.

That has to be the best climate I've ever seen at my latitude! Too bad it's across the ocean.
I find that Moncton does get sea-effect snow, but it comes from the northeast or in other words the Northumberland Strait. I mean there has to be an explanation of why Moncton seems to get more snow then other areas in New Brunswick in winter storms. Then again it's like every winter weather systems dream to dump their load on Moncton.

Moncton is near the sea by two directions, which combined with heavy low-pressure systems and freezing temps don't help.
I think you may find this one even better (Nantes 47 N)
That's just crazy especially Hudiksvall! Hard to believe how lucky France, Sweden and Europe in general is for the latitude. In Scandinavia they say "there's now bad weather, only bad clothing", but they don't have to deal as much with the snow, cold and horror Canada does.
