HHey everyone,
I'll be moving to Canada soon, and a few of my friends recently warned me about how cold it can get over there—they kind of scared me to be honest!
So I wanted to ask:
How do you usually heat your home during the winter?
And also, what kind of clothing do you wear outside to stay warm?
Any tips for someone who's not used to extreme cold would be super helpful.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Heating in Canada
Most homes are heated with either central heating or a gas/electric furnace, so indoors it’s usually nice and cozy. For outside, good layers of clothing: winter jacket, hat, gloves, and waterproof boots make all the difference.
Don’t stress too much, you’ll learn what works for you pretty quickly!

Top tip: don’t skimp on quality outerwear—windproof and waterproof gear will make the cold way more manageable. Also, keep in mind that heating options can vary depending on where you live; in condos and apartments, you might run into electric baseboards or even
