Back From Hay River

So its Monday and I was in Hay River on the weekend. The Hay River Trade Show. Wasn't to bad. Met some people.

But other then that lets get to politics. Canada and the United States are both now headed towards elections. That should be interesting. Can Harper and crew lead the way back to the capital? Will all the leaders visit Yellowknife?

I think they all should out of good nature visit the capital of all the provinces and territories and meet with the local representative. We in the North have a lot at stake as the Arctic is drastically changing for good and bad.

Over time and with the Russians acting the way they are, it should't be totally out of the question that we seriously have to worry abot the Russians from the high arctic. Nobody believes that we hold all the land to the extreme pole.

Do you know that the Fins can't stand the Russians. All the Scands are bickering back and forth. But they are a great bunch of people and are very similar to us in many ways.

Ice Road Truckers are the toast of the town in America. They love the show and call up North all the time looking for Alex Debadorski.
