Work, usually. It's not uncommon for it to dip to the -40s for a few weeks in some parts of Canada. Your employer is not going to let you stay home just because it's cold.
- mrguyorama 3y agoIf there is any wind at those low temps, the outside is a genuine danger to your health. In northern Maine where I grew up, we had to shut the schools for cold snaps a few times, because asking kids to wait for the bus in those situations is asking for children to freeze to death
- LegitShady 3y agoI used to have a job that would require us to travel in extreme cold in remote areas of canada. We would go in teams of 2 - each one driving a different truck (in case one broke down) with a huge extra gas tank in the bed, some cold weather survival gear, and a radio for talking between the trucks. If you have to drive 1100 km in -40 for work and they don't provide you proper transportation, you should refuse or you should rent a non electric car. It's literally a danger to your life to do otherwise.
