I lived in a very cold country for a while - one where it gets to -35c in winter.
People in cold countries are different to us.
They are not only used to it - but they are super organised and their infrastructure and machines are made to put up with it.
We think the weather gets hard to handle here when it rains.
They still go to work in blizzards. Forget trying to tell your boss you couldn't make it to work because it was snowing.
I lived in a place where they had to have heaters in the roads to keep them ice free.
This sort of stuff adds cost to the plant but Canada has a lot of mining and we'd be best to hire the locals instead of sending over our dudes in thongs and singlets.
