Markham's weather and homes
In Markham, July averages a high of 27.3 °C and January a low of −10.1 °C, about 18 days a year reach 30 °C, 145 nights fall at or below 0 °C, and 863 mm of precipitation falls in a typical year. That's drier than 55% of the 160 Canadian cities we have climate figures for.
56% of homes are detached houses; 19% were built in 1980 or earlier.
Pickering, 11 km away, gets much the same rain and snow in a year.

Sun on the outside
With 18 days at 30 °C or more, functional exterior shutters that close over the glass can keep sun off it. Decorative ones that don't close only frame the window.
Freeze and thaw
145 freezing nights a year put anything outside through freeze and thaw. Exterior shutters need materials and fixings made for that; interior shutters never see it.
