they can't build houses here to deal with the cold

one week of almost -10 and how many frozen pipes happenned? crazy - nowhere else in Canada would that happen

not to mention all the houses built with crappy single glass windows that just blow the cold air in

people/builders cheap out - this kind of snow fall is pretty rare - once a decade i think we get a huge dump like this

so its justifiable that they don't build houses etc to sustain cold temps and rare snowfalls
