“Canada is warming at roughly double the global average rate,” according to scientists at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). But it looks like this claim, regularly repeated by politicians and media across the board, is yet another example of made up evidence to support a politically correct narrative. And, given that Canada represents such a large fraction of global land surface area, one naturally wonders if the world is actually warming at anything like the rate we are told it is.

A new report demonstrates that the data ECCC has been relying on may be hopelessly corrupted by fundamental mistakes that are responsible for almost all the supposed warming. Rather than being the poster child for global warming, Canada may actually be the latest example of why the public increasingly do not believe anything we are told by governments about climate change.

Scientists can certainly make errors when analysing data, but sometimes, instruments or other effects can lead to skewed data that is more difficult to detect. When it comes to climate change, such errors can have devastating consequences since severe climate change policies based on flawed studies not only affects businesses, but all citizens who are forced to pay for “climate action” and costly and unreliable alternative energy technologies.

On December 23rd, the report “Artificial stepwise increases in homogenized surface air temperature data invalidate published climate warming claims for Canada” was released by Dr. Joseph Hickey, a data scientist with a PhD in Physics (Complexity Science). The report was published by CORRELATION Research in the Public Interest, a registered not-for-profit corporation based in Ottawa, Canada, regarding what appears to be a significant........
