Climate Map Canada

Canada’s climate ranges from temperate along the southern border to subarctic and arctic in the north.
Coastal British Columbia experiences a mild oceanic climate, while the Prairies see cold winters and warm summers. The northern territories are defined by permafrost and polar conditions.
Most Canadians live within 200 km of the U.S. border, where the climate is generally more moderate (How Canada’s climate will change in the future you can find here).
