It is really cold!!!!!

It is hard to believe that the early Canadian settlers lived through the harsh winters without the technology we have today. What I mean is that we have heaters in our houses that heat pretty much our whole house in a matter of minutes. The settlers didn't have this. They used fires.
They did seem to build houses that would be easy to heat though. They also changed the way they dressed in the winter. Just like us. In winter they covered their clothes with furs to make sure that they were warm. They also wore moccasins. The fact that people also lived close together so they could help each other through the hard times. Overall I think that it is absolutely amazing that early Canadian settlers survived through the harsh winters without the things that we couldn't survive without today.
