The coldest month in my country (in Hungary) is usually February. Sometimes the temperature go below -20 °C. Rarely even below -30 °C. Canada is indeed worse in this aspect, because the temperature can go below -40 °C in Canada. Very good to live in a country, where the temperature is not going below 10 °C. The life of the people, who live in such a country is much easier in this aspect, because they do not have to heat their rooms in the winter.
