Sunshine Hours per year

I was wondering about the hours of sunshine we have here in Leduc/Edmonton. This morning I was driving Joka to work on yet another clearblue and sunshiny day, of which I feel we have a lot over here. Again Google comes to the rescue: Edmonton receives 2,299 hours (6.3 hpd) of sunshine per year as opposed to The Netherlands only having 1600 hours (4.4 hpd) on average. It may be darned cold here during winter but at least we have a lot of sunshine to make up for that and with the sun shining it at least seems less cold.
