Good questions Hannah. Can you please post your findings as well? Also your contact to an expert. If you need an expert still I can set you up with a contact. 

Moving into phase 2 of this project - Canada's biggest imports are computers, cars, oil and drugs (medication) as you can see here: http://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/profile/country/can/. Which of these would be impacted most by climate change? Would any of our exports suffer? What would this mean in dollar terms?

Great information, it is well done. And very informative, keep up the great work. I'd love to see more research done on this topic.
