"Humanitarian", are their lives being threatened?

The frostbite occurred in North Dakota not in Canada.

Mexico is known as less than a safe place to live and is well known for crime and corruption. Crossing their border on foot wouldn't guarantee they would not be put in jail for no good reason. The country is overwhelmingly Catholic and I wonder if Muslims would be welcomed with open arms.

It is possible to survive in colder climes when you have a furnace instead of A/C.

If you didn't have A/C in hot climates you wouldn't survive the heat so you stay in the cool house.
Conversely in a cold winter you wouldn't survive without a source of heat. With a furnace warming the house that is where you would stay, in the house , just like in hot places with A/C.

As a Canadian, I am very afraid of USA now. They have turned on us and have become a threat to my country by words and deeds and against our livelihood. So many lies are being told by their leader it's impossible for their citizens to make reasonable decisions. The leader cherry-picks the worst possible scenarios as fact which to me is similar to picking verses out of the Bible to bolster a personal point of view.
