The effects of climate change are taking a toll on Christmas tree farms across Canada, with one forestry expert and the head of the Canadian Christmas Tree Association saying the sector that’s already undergoing shifts will need to adapt.
Seedlings and their shallow roots are also at risk of being inundated during flooding, while wet, cool soils increase the risk of root diseases, Hamelin noted. The difference, Brennan said, is the extreme, unseasonable nature of recent droughts and other climate-related events, including intense late-spring frosts in Nova Scotia in 2018 followed by eastern Ontario and western Quebec in 2020.
Climate change is not the only factor challenging farmers and threatening Canada’s stock of real Christmas trees, which has been declining for several years.

Yeah ok.
We’re not responsible.
Are you that hard up for a story? Maybe it’s Alien’s. Globe and Mail is trash. You’re fast becoming the National Enquirer!
Climate change is effecting a lot of things .. starting with some people's intelligence and more so the bank accounts of a lot of the elite that are pushing it
Shaaaaat up
More climate hysteria…
I don't want to hear anything coming from supposed 'experts', especially when it is being propagated by your kind: lying media outlet
Umm growing a tree for the sole purpose of killing it seems normal unless it’s a business losing money? So that’s climate change eh?!
Is that British company still chopping down hectares of BC trees to burn in England as renewables?
Weird how evergreens only thrive where liberals don’t live. What about the maples? Any study on that? This is getting ridiculous.
Oh my God!!!!!!! Nooooooooo! The weather is affecting the trees!!!!!!
Lots of Xmas trees in conservative Ontario. Weird.
Perhaps our lovely NDP Gvt can impose a Climate Change Xmas Tree Tax to fix the problem....?
We are coming out of an ice age
🤨🙄
Wow .... tree farms I saw were doing really well...
FUD?
Seriously? 😂
This is false.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Omg!! Absolutely ridiculous!! What a BS story!
26 % of the world’s boreal forest is located in Canada. I’m sure we don’t have a tree problem but do go on with the fear porn.
Drying?
Mouthbreathing Conservatives don't believe it....
Climate change is a hoax but an excuse to tax us

'...and beyond'? Nope. FakeNews when written that way. Perhaps the reporter should stick to the facts and say '... affecting Christmas trees in BC'. It's all doing great here in Ontario, and this is part of '...and beyond'. LazyJournalism

Climate change affecting Christmas trees in B.C. and beyond: expertThe effects of climate change are taking a toll on Christmas tree farms in British Columbia and beyond. Other then a few days of above average temperature a few years ago, where is the “climate change” in this region? Sad to see tradition go, but it's time to acknowledge/accept that tree farms as they currently operate are not a sustainable part of the natural environment. I guess selective harvesting may be a solution. Less profitable of course... Cancel Christmas?

Perhaps print media creating daily newspapers, culling millions of trees a year, creating millions of tons of emissions distributing the daily papers, should stop the climate killing practice... We have the internet to relay news, time for some environmental responsibility. You’re making shit up again They've been gouging the last 7-8 yrs. We've had enough and gone to artificial for the first time. Not going back. xmastree
