Maybe our government should focus on stuff like this along with military spending in the Arctic.

Never mind the fish data get some military bases up there.

A military presence up there makes the point quite nicely.

Military is nice and all, but EVERYTHING matters when making a claim. We have to demonstrate that and the evidence suggests that we aren't doing everything we can up there. We can't just show enforcement; we have to show administration.

Well according to the article we aren't the only ones up to par, so I doubt it'll hurt us that much.
