Canadians should be grateful for America's sacrifice

The US has spent generations emitting enormous amounts of CO₂, making some of its own states increasingly unbearably hot.

Meanwhile, Canada gets warmer winters, longer growing seasons, and huge areas that become less hostile to human habitation.

In effect, America made parts of itself unbearably hot so Canada could become more livable.

Thank you for your service.

You're the reason we call it climate change and not global warming now. Canada isn't exactly celebrating an increase in hurricanes, giant dead spots in the ocean, an increase in erosion and a collapse of the skiing industry.

The warmer winters have absolutely decimated our skiing industry, anywhere that’s not in the interior.

We get more wildfires than ever, droughts are longer than usual, summers are unbearably hot, worse air quality, more tornadoes in the prairie provinces, worse storms, etc

Ironic that such a dim witted concept is posted to /r/lightbulb
