My suggestion would be to ask to contact a staff member to give you a heads up on the housing.
When do you arrive to start teaching?
When i have had questions about housing at my different jobs, I've tried to get in touch with staff and they give a good accurate picture of the king of housing you are about to recieve.

Oh you are going to love the weather here!
it's a awesome 15-20 degrees!
I'm from Edmonton so I totally get the cold winter.
I do mean contact staff members if you can at the university.
Ask if you can email a fellow Canadian. When do you ship out? Do you have an arrival date?

Dear Wilson
Thanks for the link, I have read the comment on the link, but did not get much information about the faculty housing at KSU. Thank you again
