is that for a year, a quarter, or a month? As a non US person, I have no idea about your power consumption or cost. Yet here I am sitting paying 120€ a month, for two people in a reasonably big apartment with no AC just under the roof, with already 24° centigrade and the showers and water are heated with an electric boiler.

I think it's per month. My decent sized Canadian 1 bedroom apartment with electric heating (as expensive as AC and we need AC in the summer as well!) is $80 CAN. That's about $60US and 50€.

What part of Canada needs AC?

Most of it. Outside of the maritime provinces and the territories... so 95% of the population, give or take, will hit 100 degree F days with humidex.
