Why Canada colder than the US?

Answer 1

Canada is cold only in the winter. However, Canada is cold because of its northern latitude. The only places in Canada that are cold year round are the northern territories. Summers in southern Canada can be as high as 80 degrees. Fall in Canada is fairly cool. Ignore the stereotype that Canada is freezing cold year round. It only applies to areas near the Arctic Circle or Nunavut.

Answer 2

Because parts of Canada are farther from the equator then parts of the US, but note that most of the population of Canada has a climate about the same as the Northern US states, and the southern tip of Ontario is at the same latitude ( distance from the equator) as Northern California.

But Canada is the colder than USA because we are northern but Alaska could be colder than some places in Canada like were i am living in ( Northern Ontario). But still Canada is colder Canada is the first coldest country or Second. But of course Antarctica is colder than any other country in the world.

Answer 4

The general climate of a region (such as Canada or Mexico) is determined by the way the sun's light hits the Earth.

The earth is round, so sunlight hits the equator fairly straight making it very hot, and the light hits the poles at a very low angle, not giving them as much heat, making them cold.

Mexico is closer to the equator than Canada so sunlight hits Mexico ore directly making it warmer than Canada.
