got a HRV and have it set to keep the RH in the low 30's. Windows keep fairly clear but if I've I say boil a big pot of paste and forget the range hood fan, I'll get condensation though will eventually clear.

Other option is a whole house dehumidifier but advantage of a HRV is you're exhausting the stale air.

HRV is definitely the way to go. Our house came with one and we love it.
Not only can we control humidity, as said, stale air is exhausted from the house. As well, some of the heat in the exiting air exchanges with the incoming air to save you money.
Never have condensation on our windows. But then here in the lower mainland it never gets as cold as in your climate
