Temperature change in Canada – Interactive map

The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators (CESI) program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Temperature change in Canada indicator shows the yearly and seasonal surface air temperature departures for the years 1948 to 2024. As well, it presents a spatial distribution of surface air temperature departures for the year 2024 and trends in temperature over the period from 1948 to 2024. Information is provided to Canadians in a number of formats including: static and interactive maps, charts and graphs, HTML and CSV data tables and downloadable reports. See the supplementary documentation for the data sources and details on how the data were collected and how the indicator was calculated.
