How can Canadians live in the northern territories? How do they survive the cold?
<|assistant|>
People in the northern territories of Canada have adapted to living in the Arctic climate by wearing warm, water-resistant clothing; utilizing technologies such as air conditioning, insulation and wood and petrochemical fuels; relying on locally-available food sources; and taking steps to ensure their safety and security, such as having well-stocked emergency kits. Additionally, many Northerners benefit from the services and programming of Indigenous organizations and Governments that provide essential infrastructure, housing, economic and social supports to enable livelihoods. The northern territories are home to large expanses of wilderness, and many local inhabitants are also active in hunting, trapping and fishing in order to sustain themselves. Ultimately, with hard work and an understanding of the environment, Canadians living in the northern territories have learned to thrive in one of the harshest yet stunning climates on the planet.
