Here's another article that doesn't require a sign-in.
Long story short: People in Saskatchewan call hoodies "bunny hugs" and no one knows why.

Thank you. I didn't have that requirement.
re: "no one knows why" i've heard it was like department store catalogue regional marketing copy. i know that doesn't fully explain "why" but it's at least a bit of an explanation.
I've heard so many explanations I'm pretty sure Saskatchewan is like the Joker, coming up with a different lie every time someone asks.
Also like the Joker, Saskatchewan is fictional
I've only been to Saskatoon in Canada, so assumed all Canadians did that...
Just them. We all think it's super weird.
