A tuque is indeed a hat which keeps us warm during the -20/-40 winters of Québec and the rest of Canada. The word "tuque" is especially used in other, metaphoric expressions as well.
"Attache ta tuque!"

This expression means "you'll have a hard time doing this or that". Another variant is:

"Attache ta tuque avec de la broche!"

That means the task at hand is even steeper.
