WINTER - Do's & Don't getting car out

Guys, need some help about what to do and don't do when getting my car out after its been stored outdoors in winter (Canada - very cold and lots of snow). Normally by now the weather is usually really nice and most snow melted but this year I am facing getting my car back on the road when it feels like dead winter still. I have concerns starting up my car after its been in the cold for months - all the engine parts are still very cold and metals have not had the change to expand in the spring sun. Should I not touch or move the car? What can I do to reduce or prevent any internal damage from the cold etc ?

Thank you everyone -
