- mb3581, on 10/10/2007, -6/+54I thought it all belonged to Santa...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+31Thanks for linking to the printable version
- ekin09, on 10/10/2007, -1/+21Exactly... Although, by the sounds of it.. we are going to have to fight to keep it Canadian.
- quakeIII, on 10/10/2007, -1/+21Just how many Canadians are on Digg?
- BHRecon, on 10/10/2007, -2/+19more than u know
- blitzer, on 10/10/2007, -5/+20We should settle this once and for all.. in a hockey tournament.. played in the North poll
- ibecerfoozled, on 10/10/2007, -6/+21does anyone else think we should be worrying more about where all that melted ice is going?
- rush378, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15I say the Inuit get it and they can make their own unpopulated country out of it in addition to Nunavut.
- uberchaoslord, on 10/10/2007, -3/+15Agreed - per capita canada has one of the highest proliferations of internet and high-speed internet in the world. In Alberta in particular, the government paid to have fibre wired to every little backwater community so they could have reasonably priced high-speed internet.
- Yazilliclick, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12Well it's not saying much but he's done a heck of alot more than anybody else recently.
- superguysteve, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12dude I totally called it like a year ago.
- supaklaw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11The Canadian military is actually building bases on the northern coastline... for good reason.
- Railer, on 10/10/2007, -5/+15Danes can bite my Canadian Ass.
- GodsDragon, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12I AM CANADIAN
- mapez, on 10/10/2007, -7/+17I wish Stephen Harper wasn't such a pussy and would assert our sovereignty.. It is to the bad the Liberals cannot get their ***** together either.
- futuretheory, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12Well if flags count, then the moon belongs to the U.S.A.
- Rukaribe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10Yeah, get off our Hans Island.
- charman2k6, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10The Arctic belongs to Canada!
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+12The USA will back Canada's claim and then we'll share like a good happy little North American family.
- Rukaribe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Hans Island will be ours!
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+11The people who already live in the arctic should be the ones who determine how it is used. Or... are we gonna go back to the days of cowboys and indians?
Since there are people who live there... should not they have the say... or do the need nukes for anybody to notice them? - ZenFountain, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Canadian or American it doesn't matter, good old NAFTA guarantees the Canadians have to sell a sizable portion of their gas to America and vice versa if America stakes it.
- giveer, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Ellesmere Island (part of Canada) - is the land that goes the furthest north... Plus, Canada already (deeply) covers the magnetic north pole.
This will only be a tricky situation in so far that technically, it currently "belongs" to no one. - There's no land to fight over. Placing a flag there, at the end of the UN and global recognition's day, doesn't actually mean anything. I am biased, but I say it should go to Canada. - BlackAle, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9the only thing America owns is ignorance.
- iVision, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Canada would win hands down, and it's spelled pole.
- Brianguy2000, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Think of all the snow cones that could be made!
- Velnich, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7I'm fantasizing about a perfect world where Canada asserts their control of the area and is backed by the UN, then refuses to mine the oil out of natural concerns.
- Rukaribe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8All political parties in Canada have been slack on the issue. Everyone is all talk and no execution so far. But now it actually matters.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -9/+15It's mine. I found it and you can't have it.
- Velnich, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I planted a flag under your mom.
- aywwts4, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6I say instead of some pansy demilitarized "Treaty System" like we have in the antartic, we agree that nobody owns the arctic but anyone may throw their hat in the ring and fight for it. Make the arctic a highly militarized no holds barred battlegrounds where any and every nation dukes it out regardless of existing treaty.... I'm thinking fighting robots.
- Rukaribe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Yeah, and also we all use MSN Messenger (WLM I guess now) instead of AIM, and Facebook instead of MySpace.
- Nothlit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5From Wikipedia:
"An exclusive economic zone extends for 200 nautical miles (370 km) beyond the baselines of the territorial sea, thus it includes the territorial sea and its contiguous zone. A coastal nation has control of all economic resources within its exclusive economic zone, including fishing, mining, oil exploration, and any pollution of those resources." - ImYourRealDad, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8Gentlemen, gentlemen, please...This can all be settled easily...through a world wide DDR tournament!
Except Japan, they can't compete. - wageslaven, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6Dont be an arse, we can settle this with the Danes without name calling. Grow up.
- regedit2D, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4yeah kind of. In this world if you can't make a nuke you're not a concern to anyone.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -7/+10...Canada of course. It is between Canada or Russia and if the US tries to take it since they have no claim in the matter then we will blow the ***** out of them.
- jimmiss, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4My old Roommate was up there with our Air Force keeping the Russians out, and we can keep the rest of you out too! You can come visit though.
- spucky, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3The reason is not the ice, but the oil.
- thebellmaster1x, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4$
Learn how to use it. - anarchytv, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4The penguins and seals were there first, they own it.
- heystoopid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3The problem is USA is far too busy fixated on the Middle East's cheap oil , there for the taking by the man with the biggest gun and most Americans could not even remotely find Canada even with a map and directions , so why should they care ?
- anarchytv, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3I think we've just found a new home for the Pirate Bay. Can lay your fat fiber pipes from our location direct to all juicy points on the globe, including Europe, North America, and Russia. All packets will travel through an Artic switching station.
I declare the Artic a free and independent sovereign nation. All penguins, seals, polar bears, and other wildlife are granted citizenship status. Any attack on any one of them shall be considered an attack on all of us, and an act of war. - iVision, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2What you mean who cares about the arctic? Are you insane? There is many natural resources up there like diamonds and natural gas. Canada need to do more to protect our north.
- rwcmjack, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Limit it to 200 miles passed your coast line and thats it - this continental shelf thing is nonsense - and anyone thinking they will be drilling in 14,000 feet of water will not be getting very far
- Aidenag, on 10/10/2007, -7/+9Your welcome :)
- ekin09, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Don't take when I say "fight" literally............ Remember I am Canadian too and agree with you 100%
- Screwy1138, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2nice thinking outside the box.
