Here is a product I needed last fall. Garden Dome No idea if there is a Canadian distributor. This company is based in Michigan. According to the site, the cover is made of lightweight canvas that freezes and forms a hard shell. They have drawings explaining how it works. I’d be more than happy to test it in my zone.

In my zone, composting outdoors is impossible during winter months. Vermicomposting works differently. Some worm bin systems can be used year round and work both indoors and out. All you need is a well ventilated spot that doesn’t get colder than 4°C ( 40F) or hotter than 26°C (80F).
You can order worms or eggs from: Gardener’s Supply Company

There is an excellent video on Fine Gardening about Worm composting
