And in a case of tit-for-tat, their flightpaths over NFLD to Great Britain would need to be adjusted, as well as Alaska flights.
Anything between the US & Canada could easily escalate. In this case I think we are just exercising rights that have been neglected. ALthough I don't look forward to paying for new icebreakers, I guess that is the cost.
