Seriously Canada, Relax. I Mean Really, you're Canada!

So Canada is getting really serious about this Arctic thing. It's kind of cute. I mentioned in the comment section before that Canada was planning on sending these military ice-breakers up into the ice and defend their property. Problem is, no one IN THE ENTIRE WORLD actually acknowledges that Canada has any claim whatsoever on that region. Not us, not anyone. But mostly, it seems, not us. Now, let me clarify something for certain other people out there who shall remain nameless. Stephen Harper did not exactly run on a pro-America platform. He ran on a "Why is everybody else ragging on America?" platform. He never said he wouldn't be an adversarial dick when it came to America. In fact, it seems that Mr. Harper has seen "Love Actually" a few too many times and is trying to prove some kind of point. Seriously, though, the idea of Canada defending its rights over the Arctic kind of plays out like a Kids in the Hall sketch. But I still don't think Canada is that funny.
