OTTAWA — Prime minister-designate Stephen Harper says he won’t take advice from the U.S. ambassador on how to protect Canadian sovereignty in the North.
At a wide-ranging press conference this afternoon, during which he said the new Conservative government will be sworn in on Monday, Feb. 6, Harper said he will stick to his campaign promise to station icebreakers and military personnel in Canada’s Arctic.
U.S. Ambassador David Wilkins had criticized Harper’s plan, claiming the Arctic passage to be "neutral waters.”
But Harper, at his first news conference as the incoming prime minister, said Canadians gave him a mandate to protect Canada’s sovereign interests in the North.
And Harper said he’ll listen to Canadians on such issues, not the American ambassador.

The North West Passage belongs to CANADA bitches!
Get the **** out!
Tee hee hee. Completely transparent move by Harper.
What's everyone's biggest complaint about Harper? He's going to suck up to Bush. So he talks a little inconsequential smack about the Arctic so he doesn't look like Dubya's boy.
Woo hoo.
We must remain in control of the base jumping capital of the world, Baffin Island.

We must remain in control of the base jumping capital of the world, Baffin Island.The arctic is the last untouched land that is full of resourses and with the melting of the ice,it could be a major waterway. In other words MONEY IS TO BE MADE and you want it to be given away to others. You have to be joking shiv, I can't believe a man of your stature would not understand that. I would think with your hatered of the americans you would'nt want them to have it all, would you?
