Abstract
Heat flow has been measured at 214 separate sites in Canada and on the surrounding continental shelves. Most geological provinces show average heat flow that conforms approximately to world averages for areas of similar tectonic age, but the northern Prairies show an anomalously high heat flow that is probably controlled by deep water movement, and the coastal zone of southern British Columbia shows a low heat flow that is believed to be associated with recent subduction of small ocean plates.
