22 dead so far and it's not even close to being over.

In late January 2019, a severe cold wave caused by a weakened jet stream around the Arctic polar vortex[3] hit the Midwestern United States and Eastern Canada, killing at least 22 people.[1][2] It came after a winter storm brought up to 13 inches (33 cm) of snow in some regions from January 27–29.[1][4] As of February 2, the polar vortex was moving west.[5] As of February 5 it is affecting Western Canada.[6]

Saskatoon is NOT Price Albert though.
;)
Even the distance in southern Ontario of 150 K makes a huge difference in temperature norms.
Not to mention the huge amounts of COLD RECORDS I have posted, which do show a trend.
PS:
The climate is rather more than very fresh in that locality february. Plan to cover you well! The thermometer averaged maximum of -2°C. In the morning the temperature drops to -16°C. Thus, the mean temperature average in february in Prince Albert (Saskatchewan) is -9°C. These temperatures are far removed from those records observed in Prince Albert (Saskatchewan) in february with a maximum record of 3°C in 2016 and a minimum record of -36°C in 2009.

It was 2015 when Toronto had its coldest Jan/Feb on record. 17/18 was a record smasher too across Ontario.

In the Curious Kitty parallel universe it's T shirt weather.

Close enough. It's a 2 hr ride by snowmobile.
It can be -20 here while it is tee shirt weather in Toronto.
;)
150 K away. Which is why the whole Toronto branch of the family leave their snow machines here.

The highest temperature ever recorded in Saskatoon was 41.5 °C (107 °F) on 6 June 1988. The lowest temperature ever recorded was −50.0 °C (−58 °F) on 1 February 1893.
No doubt. I am not really disagreeing with you, the key point is, did you see the way it was being in spun in the PS I posted?

At one point PA was under two miles of Ice, we have already had the warming.

The open water sure makes a difference down in Canada’s penis.

But at present the families of 22 dead people wish their loved ones wore sweaters instead of getting caught off guard wearing t-shirts.

Danbones lives right beside an even bigger body of water on Canada's scrotum. Every year, one of his relatives makes the news when they break through the ice on Georgian Bay or Lake Simcoe while riding their sleds.

This is interesting. It's a short speech by Art Robinson (another of the evil AGW Deniers I guess) and mention of the 'Global Warming Petition Project' that ties to the "98% of Climate Scientists claim" consensus statement...

Here's a LINK to the Global Warming Petition Project:

I wish someone like Justine Trudeau had 20 minutes to review this, but I'm assuming he (or someone on his staff) is already aware of this.

"Carbon tax" will make more sense once we are deep into the "graphene age" and you need to buy carbon fibre car with a graphene battery or just a plain ol piece of steel.

The real reason coal is being hoarded rather than squandered.

You're talking about a legitimate reason for a Carbon Tax though, and not what is currently being thrust upon us to somehow attempt to change the global climate while financially raping society.

“Graphene is an example of translational nanotechnology that is rapidly moving from academic laboratories to industrial applications,” said Prof Fogelström. Talking of “a future held in the trace of a pencil,” he recalled how the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages had been defined by materials bearing new technology, and concluded: “It might well be that we are just starting a graphene age.”

You still don't want to be taxed because you bought a computer that uses graphene circuits instead of copper do you?

If I'm going to be taxed further, I want it to be based upon something real as opposed to a cult belief based upon successive facilities & blind following. If a "Carbon Tax" is imposed upon us based upon your concept a few posts up that's one thing, but if it's imposed upon us based on bullshit and selfie opportunities like what is currently in play that's something completely different. Settled science my hairy dog.

I hate to be the douchey guy quoting himself but it's an eye opener for those that haven't started thinking for themselves yet.
