🔥 Hot Flash at -20°C Superhero

This hero doesn’t wear spandex—she wears layers she instantly regrets.

  • Cape made of emergency foil blankets
  • Ice packs stuffed inside a Roots hoodie

Catchphrase:
“TURN DOWN THE HEAT! … No wait, TURN IT UP… Actually, forget it — I’m moving to the porch!”


🍁 "I Need a Timmies" Zombie

Can’t be bribed with brains, but will sprint for a fresh, steeped tea.

How to dress:

  • Messy bun
  • Dark eye bags
  • Timmies cup is glued to your hand

Only speaks in:
“Double-double… or death.”


🩵 Perimenopausaurus Rex

The most Canadian dinosaur to ever lose her cool in a grocery parking lot.

How to dress:

  • Dinosaur onesie covered in Shoppers Optimum Points stickers
  • Reusable Loblaws bag filled with vitamins, receipts, and opinions

Roar sounds like:
“JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPHINE!”


🧊 Human Thermostat of the North

Because only a menopausal Canadian woman can be freezing and sweating at the same time… in February.

How to dress:

  • Top half: tank top & shorts
  • Bottom half: snow pants & Sorel boots

Behaviour for accuracy:
Turn the heat up… then open a window… then stand outside in the snow to “cool off.”


🍷 LCBO Witch

She doesn’t fly on a broom — she rides into the weekend on a 3L box of Pinot Grigio.

  • Witch hat
  • Broomstick with a wine bottle taped to it

What’s in her cauldron:
Sangria, ice, and one mysterious Lindor chocolate from last Christmas

🛒 Costco Sample Goblin

She came for “just one thing”… and left with $389 worth of stuff and a trampoline.

How to dress:

  • Cape made of Kirkland paper towel
  • Cheese samples + cinnamon bun hidden in purse

Battle cry:
“MOVE! That air fryer sample is MINE!”


🇨🇦 â€œSorry for My Mood Swings” Mountie

Polite… until she’s not.

How to dress:

  • Classic Mountie-inspired look
  • Wear a sign: “I apologize in advance for everything I’ll say between 6:42 pm–10:03 pm.”

Props:
Notebook of “tickets” for:
• Breathing too loudly
• Chewing wrong
• Looking at her sideways


💊 Shoppers Drug Mart Receipt

Longer than the wait time for bloodwork at the clinic.

  • White outfit covered in extra-long “receipt” printouts

Featured coupons:

  • “Save $4 on Vitamin D!”
  • “20x the points if you survive today without crying!”

Canada’s confused national symbol.

How to dress:

  • Brown clothes
  • DIY beaver tail
  • Perpetually lost expression

Signature line:
“I had a thought… and then it swam away.”


🌭 Hockey Rink Mom

Colder than the arena but hotter (temperature-wise) than the dads in the stands.

How to dress:

  • Parka, mittens, blanket, folding chair
  • Thermos of “coffee” (we all know there’s Baileys in there)

Smells like:
Cold fries, rubber flooring, and Zamboni fumes


🍟 â€œSalty Like McDonald’s Fry Seasoning” Mom

Because if one more person asks if she’s okay, she’ll snap like a McNugget at 3 p.m. after school pickup.

How to dress:

  • Sprinkle salt everywhere
  • Snarky attitude

Accessory:
A hidden McDonald’s bag eaten in the car so the kids don’t see


🎃 Final Thoughts

This Halloween, skip the sexy nurse, glitter fairy, or “I tried” cat ears. Instead, embrace your inner exhausted, overheated, Canadian icon.

If anyone gives you side-eye?
Just remind them: you’ve earned this costume — in sweat, receipts, and Shoppers points.
