    definitely cut holes, the heat wouldbuild up too much reguardless, but if your using plexiglass it would prob melt. Cutting real glass would seem to be too much of a hassle, you could always try covering part of the screen top (assuming thats what your using) with something, to try to trap a little more humidity in. I'm sure its pretty cold in Canada, but even on the cold nights where im from, I usually keep a little electric heater on to keep the ambient temps up in the room.
