Sep 2007 As the scramble for Arctic resources intensifies, Canada is stepping up its military presence in the region. It's determined to protect its national sovereignty. "We will not compromise the defence of Canadian territory", vows Prime Minster Stephen Harper, announcing plans for more polar patrol ships. As the Arctic warms up; "major corporations are waking up to the fact there is going to be tremendous economic opportunity", explains Prof Huebert. Canada, Russia, Denmark and Norway all have claims to the Arctic seabed, where vast mineral reserves are thought to lie. There's concern that this scramble for resources could spiral out of control. "The worst case scenario is one of a regional area where hostilities are the norm and co-operation the exception", warns Huebert. The other main dispute is the legal status of the North West passage, which could dramatically shorten shipping times between Europe and Asia. "Canada considers all of the waters within the Canadian arctic archipelago to be internal waters", explains Prof Donat Pharand. But other countries see the passage as an international strait. "This is a dispute between Canada and the world", claims US Ambassador David Wilkins. A summit is planned for next year to discuss the future of the region.

@diamondmoney007 Says the American who's government was/is reconsidering a draft lol. You need to learn history lad. 1918 - Canadians soldiers were the best in the world - probably the same in 1945 though the Poles and Finns could reasonably claim the same but we were all in the top three. Quality over quantity.

Canada, USA and Russia all want the oil that has become available in the arctic cirlce due to global warming. But Global warming is caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Why cant they see that?

"Why don't you go and lick some beaver turd" 'Cause we're too busy selling everything we can scrape together to you gun suckers. Good thing China and Japan are paying your bills these days or you couldn't afford it.

Germans....Germans....weren't they the ones not wanting to fight Canadians in the previous world wars because the Canadian never gave up? and were excellent house to house fighters. People call our Military small because we don't have a big population, That make's the Canada's Forces fight even harder. like 72Canadian72, and Hockeylspwnage have said, go read a history book.
