2002 Toyota Celica GTS clutch problem

My 2002 toyota celica gts will not start when it is below minus 20 unless I constantly pump the clutch for a long time and press down as hard as I possibly can. It starts fine when I actually get it to connect, it is just trying to get it to that point. I am not sure if it would be just the clutch fluid since my car is from arizona and I now have it here in freezing canada. When it does start it makes a quich squealing noise too until it warms up a bit. Not even for a minute. Please help me! Even when I plug it in I still have this problem.

Hi there,

What happens if you start the car and let it warm up for 10- 15 Min? Is the clutch fluid low?

It seems like the clutch master cylinder is bad, but I would try flushing the fluid to see if that helps. Also, please go over this video:
