Yep, Ottawa "enjoys" the coldest average winter temperatures. There is a crossing in Winnipeg, Manitoba, however, which year after year, holds the trophy for the coldest windchill factor.
Speaking of cold, that reminds of how this late January, up in Barrie it was -27*C. With the windchill it was past -40*C. This was at Horseshoe Valley. I was staying for 2 days, and the X had to be parked outside. Nonetheless, after staying in -27*C air for hours, she fired up on the first try.
But man, the pixels in the radio display had an LCD-like ghosting effect when they needed to change because of the cold weather. Oh, and the sound system had no bass until 20 minutes into the drive.
LOL and did I mention that one STUPID day in December when I was driving the X in -15*C with SUMMER WASHER LIQUID? LOL the stuff froze in the washer lines. I thought I'd surely busted the pump, but to my surprise, after pouring hot water in the tank, all thawed out nicely.
