Shantanu Datta, a father who recently moved to Saskatoon with his family, shared a heartwarming moment when his 11-year-old daughter handed him a letter to Santa Claus. Despite being new to Canada, the young girl expressed hopes for a snowy Christmas, reflecting on her anticipation for genuine snowfall unlike the artificial cotton wool snowflakes common in India. As the family discusses the weather and dreams of a white Christmas, they face the reality of a potential brown Christmas in Saskatoon due to changing climate patterns. This experience prompts contemplation on the seriousness of climate change and the impact it may have on future holiday traditions. The family’s adjustment to the weather contrasts with the festive decorations around the city, signaling a shift towards warmer, snowless celebrations. Amid discussions at the COP28 conference on climate change, the Datta family navigates their daughter’s wistful longing for snow in a changing winter landscape.
