This thread will be dedicated to finding all-time temperature extremes for Canada since ECCC hasn't already done this for all 12 months.
To start, the highest temperature recorded in June is 49.6°C (121.3°F) recorded on June 29, 2021 in Lytton, British Columbia, and the coldest temperature recorded in February is -63°C (-81.4°F) recorded on February 3, 1947 in Snag, Yukon.
I've already created a climate box and am attempting to create some information tables to show more information on the temperature extremes.

Almost positive nowhere got higher in July 2021.

What about record highs during the winter months? Lillooet, BC recorded a high of 72°F last December. Could that be the highest? |

April record low is almost certainly -56 F (-48.9 C) in Eureka, Nunavut; April 8, 1964.
-78 F (-61.1 C) in Fort Vermillion, AB on January 11, 1911 is quite possibly the record low for Canada during January.

Don’t believe the Lytton reading is official yet as they haven’t checked calibration on the gauge. At least a saw a post a few months back by a meteorologist stating this. |

I will keep it for now until someone verifies the calibration. |

I think -57.8°C (-72°F) might be the coldest temperature recorded in December; recorded in Mayo, Yukon.

I found it: 22.5°C Record High
It occurred on December 3. So I guess I'll add Penticton and Hamilton to the boxes. I really appreciate your help. |

I think I found the record high for February: 22.6°C (72.7°F) recorded on February 27, 1992 in Calgary, Alberta. There could be something higher than this though. I also might've found the record high for January: 22.2°C (72.0°F) recorded in Niagara Falls, Ontario. I haven't found an exact date for this yet.

Quick question....is it really such a mission to find these temp records for Canada ? The BOM in AU has it all at the fingertips on their Records pages...all States and Territories annual, monthly and daily ( although when I say daily, its not for an individual date records ) Max and mins and rainfall. So an example using March |

This thread indicates a 26.5C in Alberta that month: Appears to checkout on Enviro Can as well.  You're right, 26.5°C is the record high for February, recorded on February 27, 1992. I also found the date for Niagara Falls: 22.2°C on January 26, 1950. Thanks for your help again and for showing me that thread, that will make things easier. |

Interesting the March record low for Canada is on the 18th and not at the beginning of the month. That's impressive.
March 1965 set all sorts of cold records here as well.
