Explanation

Canada receives cold air because it is located in the northern part of North America and experiences a predominantly cold climate. The country is known for its long and harsh winters, with temperatures dropping significantly below freezing. This is due to its high latitude and proximity to the Arctic region, which allows cold air masses to move southward into Canada.

"None of these" is also incorrect as snow is a form of frozen water.
