Now in Québec province, winter tires are mandatory by law but couple of years ago Canadian gouv. publication clearly stated that if you would to be installing only 2 winter tires on a FWD, they MUST be install in the back. I do understand what you all wrote but it will be safer under normal driving to put then in the back.
I , for my self, do not recommend only 2 tires. I think that winter tire is like Smirnoff Ice : they are handy in pack of 4
