Is it hard to keep Koi in Canada? I used to have them when I lived in Ireland. For the maybe 1 week of the year the pond was frozen they survived just fine under the ice. I suspect here in Alberta my pond would have to be as deep as a diving pool to not freeze on the bottom haha. I guess people keep them outside in the summer and bring them indoors in the winter?
