The answers are latitude and altitude. In general, as you get closer to the equator, you must go higher in altitude to get snow.
If you go up a couple thousand meters, you *do* get snow near Mexico City:

Mexico is closer to the equator (warmer in the middle of the earth) and Canada is close to the arctic circle- think North Pole. Brrr.

Too close to the equator, and that means too much sun energy. since the earth is tilted away from the sun in the winter, Montreal doesn't get enough sunlight energy heating the air to keep it above the freezing level.

thickness of the atmosphere. Atmosphere is thickere at Mexico city which doesnt allow temperatures to get cold enough for snow.
