WoW: Canada vs the Rest of the Northern Hemisphere
You no doubt heard last week that Russia sent a sub to the north pole to place a symbolic flag claiming the arctic as their own. Obviously, it’s for the oil that is now becoming more accessible due to climate change. So Russia, well, lets just say Russia isn’t too shy. Yeah. That’s it.
But wait, now Canada has countered that with a proposed military base there. (Yeah, I know, The Moscow Times. But hey, they get a few things right there from time to time.)
I know we don’t usually hear much from Canada and military in the same story (excluding their limited involvement in the current Holy War), and many of us don’t even know what street Canada is on, but it’s interesting none the less that they are willing to go head to head with Russia, Denmark and Norway, (notice I didn’t say the US, because with all these liberals running around appeasing Radical Islamic Muslims who want to kill me and my family, fighting the US is now the in thing to do), over what could amount to control of 25% of the world’s undiscovered oil and gas.
