With the exception of Alaska, it is closer to the North Pole and further from the equator than any of the other states.

^^ also, canda's latitudes mean that it receives less direct sunlight then we would

Canada is north of the U.S. where it does not get the sunshine and heat that more southern areas get.

Is Canada climate is colder or hotter than that of the us?

It depends where you are in Canada, but the country is located more slightly northern then the US. If you are in the northern territories or northern Quebec, it can get to -55 with over 100 km winds and worse, up there you see more then six months of just ice and snow and but 2 or 3 without. but throughout the praries and east and west coasts and central, there are all the four seasons. Over the summer it can get quite hot as well, it really depends on global warming, but overal Canada is colder and known to be. Hope this helps! :)

Is Canada colder than the Amazon?

Technically Russia and Canada border in the Arctic, but Canada has the North Pole so maybe Canada. But realistically, these are the two largest countries in the world so it's rather difficult to make a general statement that one is colder then the other. There are parts of Canada that are colder then parts of Russia and there are parts of Russia that are colder then Canada. But then the same can be said about parts of the USA being colder then parts of Canada (and I'm not just talking about Alaska). Like some places in the northern part of the US is colder than the Southern parts of Canada. But really Canada is colder than USA overall.
