I have a lot of issues with Trudeau but the one thing I have to give him is that he can really deal with Trump well

Side note but since when is Canada a major source of drug cartels and fentanyl production lol?

    I doubt it’s about glacier melt… Maybe he thinks there’s oil to be had up there.

      It’s called the northwest passage. It’s supposed to be a vital shipping route once the ice melts.

      It’s also an important region for defense. Look at a map of the north pole. Russia is right there. We’ve never had to worry about a naval incursion before. With melting ice we do.

      And, yes, there is oil up there.
