In brief - December is not a bad month in Toronto.
Usually, it doesn't start snowing until the 2nd or 3rd week (Christmas), and even that snow is nothing compared to what follows in Jan - March.
It is of course quite cold at that time, and you will need layered clothing.

You can of course land in March.
Although it is severely cold in March, you will only be a month away from nicer weather, whereas in December you will be staring down the barrel of a long and hard winter :)

For clothing suggestions, please search the archives.

As far as i have seen, it gets pretty nasty in toronto during winters like -9 degs or -10 degs on some days, but most of the winters will be minuses....add little wind to that and little moisture from lake ontario, so it actually feels way colder than it actually is....
