It is pretty easy to build a heating stove out of an old oil drum, for example.
I think it is more likely people will be coming up from the States to get away from fallout and anarchy and to steal our stuff. I would not want to be in AZ with no A/C or water.
Winnipeg is unlikely to be targeted as there is little of strategic value there in a military sense. Regina on the other hand has a massive oil refinery, steel mill and is the crossroads of many oil pipelines.

We have a fairly major airforce base here, including the headquarters for the Canadian NORAD region.
