Why is it cold in Canada if the sun is close to us?

The sun isn't really all that close. Canada and most northern countries and continents are usually really cold is because they are farther away from the Equator. The Equator is the part of the world that gets the most direct sunlight that's why usually countries around near the Equator are usually warm all year round. Now as you move further north or further south it gets colder. It gets colder because the farther away from the Equator you are the more indirect sunlight you get. More sunrays don't even point your way and the heat doesn't travel as much farther away from the Equator.
