Tornadoes happen in Canada for the same reasons they happen in the United States. Warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico is pushed northward, meeting up with the cooler, drier air from the northwest. This leads to the formation of strong thunderstorms that, given enough wind shear, may produce tornadoes. This air mass collision usually occurs in Canada's southern areas near the border with the United States.
