With unlimited ammo in the Frozen Tundra, one wonders in all this our fighting men and women and the assumed scenario of hand to hand fighting with the Russkies if a Hockey Game will break out. Oh the Humanity!

Prime Minister Stephen Harper took the controls of a Sea King helicopter and travelled on a submarine Wednesday, during a military operation in the Arctic intended to show the world that Canada is ready, willing and able to protect its sovereignty in the North.

Canada on a war footing? Preparing for the oil and gas wars in the frozen north? or is it a covert plan to find the hide out of Santa Claus?

Or just to claim something before all the ice melts, then they want to claim it quick, lol

He would be better off forming a diplomatic relationship with Russia.

Don't worry, MacKay has it under control. Calling them names "Russian bears", why that will hurt their feelings and they will just go away. How diplomatic... TIC

'When we see a Russian Bear approaching Canadian air space, we meet them with an F-18. We remind them that this is Canadian sovereign airspace, and they turn back.'

Thanks everyone for your comments, I am certain if global warming did indeed hit and melt the snow they would have to sit down peacefully, after all you cant fight with snowballs if the ammo supply has melted.
