It can get pretty cold there. Get a nice, waterproof coat- one that is rated for -30 degrees.
Heated vests, and gloves, and thermal garments are helpful. Also get a Canadian knit cap (called a touque).
Blundstone boots are what all the missionaries wear. They have thermal lined boots.
Wear with wool or thermal socks.

By far the most mentioned boots in ALL missionary threads. It is a Chelsea boot style. A thermal version is available for really cold climates. I haven't found a negative review of Blundstones. Many missionaries say these lasted their entire mission and still look nice.
These coats are a little pricey, but they've been said to be so, so nice for those extra cold areas of the world. They are rated for -50 degrees.
