These are great examples, I have some more ancedotal evidence in Canada, such as the creeping north of the wine industry. Used to be just Point Pelee, then Niagara, and now even the Ottawa Valley has wineries.

There have been wineries in the Okanagan Valley in BC since the 1800s which is farther north than Ottawa. So I am not sure that's a particularly good example.

Because the climate in the Okanagan is, and always has been, just like Ontario.

For those playing at home, it’s a desert-like (if not outright desert) region, and for bonus points it’s on the other end of Canada. Talk about a not “particularly good example”.

The Okanagan is thousands of kilometers away and the south end connects to the Mojave Desert.

This is not the great counter example you think it is.
