20 shots showing how cold it is this winter in Canada (21 photos)

In January, Canada experienced record temperatures down to -40°C. The bad weather was accompanied by heavy snow and power outages, and schools were also closed due to the cold. Nature reminded us of its power.





Despite the unusually cold weather, local residents quickly adapted to the difficult conditions - and many turned on their sense of humor and took funny videos and photos in the cold. Record cold in some Canadian regions has caused power outages and forced the closure of schools and other businesses.
