Summary This report assesses how Canada’s climate has changed, why, and what changes are projected for the future. It provides a physical science foundation for the other national assessment reports to be released in the coming years, which will assess recent knowledge on climate change impacts and progress in adaptation across regions and sectors in Canada (see Chapter 1, Section 1.1). Given the large geographic expanse of Canada, historical changes in climate have varied across the country, and projected future changes will vary as well.
