The US has more tornados than any other country, 1100-1200 per year. Canada is #2 with about 100 a year. Then conditions for our massive tornado count are a unique balance of weather patterns. As climate changes that balance could weaken/ break.
And while it would mean that this specific weather event becomes less common, others will become more prevalent. And the big hit is areas not used to certain events could get more. Texas has a hard time with blizzards, Maine has never seen a heatwave in the 110s.

Look at the question a little bit different.
