I really don't think there's any need to do that. Just drive it like a normal car. As you drive it will charge. Unless the car is sitting idle for more than a week, you needn't do anything special.

I've driven it like a 'regular' car for 7 years now.

Get in the car, drive it, park it. Get out. Repeat.

That's all you need to know.

2)Should I get rust proofing in the undercarriage of the car? I live in Saskatchewan, where 6 months its winter at -30C.
3)Any issues with the batter in -30C temperature

I live in Poland and have Toyota Auris hybrid. In our climate winter lasts a few months and temperatures drop below -20. I did not notice performance degradation battery at these temperatures.
