Lol, you're from Canada, and your complaining about the heat? Try living in the middle of the Arizona desert. I believe that it is probably a mix of both. Oh, and just for the record, el nino doens't hit Canada, only the American southwest.

You mean to tell me that el nino doesn't affect the weather patterns here in Canada? And i wasn't complaining about the heat, its really nice here actually. Its not my fault you live in the desert.

Yea, only the American Southwest and some parts of South America is hit by el nino and la nina. It should start to cool down in 2020.

I've just been reading a report in our local paper that says a group of scientists here in New Zealand don't think there's global warming at all. And it could well be born out by the fact that we've just had the coldest December in years, when normally December is part of our summer.
