We say - bring on Global warming.
This winter and the last 2 we've had -40C which we hadn't had for many years. A couple weeks ago Edmonton International Airport had -46C while the old record was -36C. That's 18 degrees Fahrenheit cooler - pretty significant. Not only was was the climate data selectively chosen to show warming, anecdotally there isn't even warming. Europe is in the deep freeze too.
