The history of the Arctic has a draw on me in the same way that it has drawn so many others: with power and with beauty.
Franklin's maps and the subsequent search for his last expedition, provided the information needed to expand into this area.
I think that uncovering truths that have been hidden for historical reasons or convenience is the best part about history.
I believe that the Arctic is a highly controversial issue. Canada's future depends greatly on our Arctic sovereignty.
