I wasn't aware of this, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the info!

and the NEW flag in the North Pole just to piss of Russia? Don't worry about that Russia thing though.....as usual, Big Bro to the south will make sure nothing bad happens to ya all.:thumbsup:
Not just a flag, we're setting up 2 military bases up there:jointsmile:. It's hardly "just to piss off the Russians", they're the ones who started the whole thing by trying to claim the arctic land by planting the first flag. Now who has rights to the area is debateable I suppose, but Canada nonetheless is making efforts to protect our arctic sovereignty and valuable resources. I'm glad we finally have a government with the balls to stand up for Canadian interests.
What I find incredible is that America is actually trying to claim rights to certain arctic passages and regions. If I remember my geography right, I think us Canadian folk are a bit more connected:wtf:


EDIT:

sorry p4b i think youve lost this battle
Oh and dude, there's nothing more anoying then people who just end debates by declaring themselves the winner whilst arguments are still being made.
