A good chunk of Canadians: “BuT cLiMaTe ChAnGe Is FaKe!!1!”
I come across these kinds of people - mostly boomers, but also a fair number of younger people - all the time. And frequently, there is a super-strong correlation between such fact denialism with both religiosity and conservatism. You come across a CPC or PPC supporter, or a deeply religious person (of one of the Abrahamic faiths), and dollars to dimes they’ll tell you that climate change is a leftist scam.
