I visited that very glacier with my father. The historic extent of the glacier is clearly marked. That evening he still insisted global warming was made up for a political agenda, simply natural variation, etc. There really isn't much you can do to convince some people. Also FWIW, I think the bigger concern in Central Asia is water security. I don't think Canadians will be in as difficult a position as those in Central Asia without them.

"Canada has 7% of the world's renewable fresh water", but the 85% of the population that lives close to the south border doesn't have access to this water as it mostly flows northwards towards the Arctic Ocean. [1] The rest is underground, glacier water or sitting in lakes. It isn't as bad as Central Asia as far as I know, but it's still not great.
