    Canada will get is getting warmer too you know. From nice and cool to nice and warm. Same as here in Norhern Europe*, and I believe the influx of rich “Southerners” will increase, if it hasn’t already.

    * I can’t believe how far South Canada goes. The most populated area is on a latitude with Central Europe. I live on the same latitude as, say, Anchorage. I can’t even find a reasonably-sized town in Canada. But afaiu climate is very different because of the Gulf stream?

      Yup. If and when the gulf Stream shuts down, everything above again is going to be a popsicle.

      Day after to tomorrow is my favourite apocalypse movie.

      Research from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources indicates that ice fishing season is three weeks shorter on average than it was in the 1970’s. Increasing temperatures = less ice on lakes = shorter ice fishing season. If climate change is impacting Wisconsin, it’s already impacting Canada.

        Oh sure, I phrased it a little badly.

        In other places it shows more during the summer, in the North it shows more during the winter. can’t remember the last time we had a proper one here, without several melting and re-freezing phases.

      Living in Southern Ontario the climate here is already fucked. this past winter was just all over the place. Didn’t have much of a spring just transitioned from Winter to Summer. probably going to be the same for Fall just from Summer right to Winter. I mean we had a few chilly days in August.

      Climate is different for a few reasons but the Gulf Stream is one of them.
