“Canada is such a northern country, don’t we want a little global warming?” I often hear.
In a nutshell, NO.
We’re warming 2x faster than the rest of the world, driving extreme heat, flood, and sea level rise we are not prepared for. The wildfire season started in Feb this year. Feb!

And as we learned in bc this winter, you can get the worst of both worlds by swinging from super warm winter to super cold - with devastating results for food production.
Plus pine beetle... We need cold.
Plus. Don't run your heating experiment on my climate even if u think it'll be good! (Ffs)
Yeeep. Former Californian here. I'd be happy to explain to people what the pine beetles have done to the forests and subsequently wildfire season there.
