Wrong everywhere: no straps on building to allow the board or building to breathe and fitting tight leaves no room for expansion in warmer weather

No no no. It’s cold now. When it heats up, it’s going to rip itself off the wall

In Canada, you don't install it like that; you need furring strips for an air gap.

no. never. not ever. now it will rot faster. claps always should just go in with no effort. the water gets trapped now that its too tight and rots the ends out faster

I would have it tight at the seams but 1/8” gap on the corners. Never have wood that tight my guy. It’s going to buckle. You live & learn

Yeah, I’m with the guy at below me. It’s in the winter. Everything’s dry and you’re putting pressure on that. Oh good luck. Hope it doesn’t push your corners. All crooked.
