What we should do is take that 2% NATO commitment and build naval bases in the Arctic to be able to patrol and enforce the NW passage through Canadian territory. That shipping lane as it opens up will reduce like over 50% of shipping costs from Asia to North America/ Europe and Canada 'controls' it if we care to. Could be a potential commercial boon to our country if we get off the couch and seize our future rather than talk about perpetual managed decline schemes like Carbon tariffs and UBI measures.
