Intense cold in Canada: a challenge and a source of national pride
At the beginning of February, North America and especially Canada, experienced an episode of extreme cold, caused by icy air masses coming down from the Arctic zones. This wave was exceptional in terms of its duration and also its intensity. Amid the blizzard and snowstorms, the thermometer hovered around -40 degrees. Even though the weather conditions during this winter were harsher than in previous years, the Canadians finally got through them without a hitch. It must be said that the cold and snow are part of the daily life of the inhabitants of this country, who know what precautions to take once the cold sets in, in order to carry out their activities while minimizing the risks to their health. Precautions that also allow them to take advantage of the winter activities that flourish in the midst of these often negative temperatures.
