The state of Canada's climate : temperature change in Canada 1895-1991 / D.W.Gullett and W.R. Skinner. : En1-11/92-2E-PDF
"Changes in average annual temperature between 1895 and 1991 were analyzed for 131 stations across the country to determine both national and regional temperature trends. Nationally, the country has warmed by a statistically significant 1.1 °C over the period of study, although the warming has not been consistent throughout the entire timespan. Three distinct phases are apparent in the nationa ltemperature record: a warming from the 1890s to the 1940s, a cooling from the 1940s to the 1970s, and a resumption of warming from the late 1970s on."--p. 4.
