In Canada you can get excellent support for all the testing that has been mentioned through the Canadian Flight Test Centre in Cold Lake, AB. Jan-Mar temperatures below -30 and excellent support facilities.

I have run certification testing for anti-icing fluid out of Winnipeg Intl in January. Major airport facilities, pretty much guaranteed sub -25 temperatures, and good logistical support. In this case we needed a week or more below the fluid's LOUT of -28.

Iqaluit is also possible, although more $$$ and a bit remote.
