Toronto, ON: Thomas Allen Pub, 2008. Hardcover. As New/As New. As New; A compelling and energetic collaboration by four of Canada's leading Northern specialists, Arctic Front is a clarion call to all Canadians about our endangered Arctic region, challenging the country to step away from the symbols and myth-making of the past and toward the urgent, political, environmental, and economic realities of the 21st century. As global warming continues to melt the ice in the Northwest Passage and the competition for northern resources heats up, Canada, the authors warn, will be forced to defend this area from a position of grave weakness. Our leaders need to take action today, blending defence and development, in order to complete Canada's nation-building in this fragile environment. With passion and sharp words, Arctic Front confronts Canada's long-standing neglect of the Far North and outlines what needs to be done to protect our national interests.
