1. In fact, when the fall equinox occurs winter cannot be too far behind in Canada
2. When the fall equinox occurs winter cannot be too far behind in Canada because it marks the end of the summer months and the beginning of winter.
3. When the fall equinox occurs winter cannot be too far behind in Canada; at this time of a year, days have been shortening.

Ying: #s 1 and 2: Excellent; #3--two wording problems in the added clause ('the year' and 'have been getting shorter').
