Default To cut or not to cut ?

Hi there,

I am living in Toronto, Ontario, got a Cherry Tree and a maple at the back
yard, am thinking of thinning it out, is it a good time now in November or
should I wait till spring. Anything I have to pay special attention to

when
I cut the branches ? Your advise will be very much appreciated.

Not sure about the cherry tree.

I have been told by people who should know that you only prune a Maple when
it is in full leaf. The cuts need time to scab over to prevent excessive
bleeding as the sap rises or falls.
