In this episode, we continue our exploration of Canada’s Arctic, shifting focus from the history of exploration to a pressing contemporary issue: sovereignty. How has Canada asserted its control over the vast, remote Arctic region, and what strategies are in place to protect its interests as global dynamics shift?
Joining us again is Major Stan Bennett, Commander of the Canadian Armed Forces Training Centre in Resolute Bay, Nunavut. With firsthand experience in Arctic operations, Major Bennett offers a wealth of knowledge on Canada’s evolving defense posture in the Far North. His insights shed light on the critical importance of the Arctic to Canada’s security and sovereignty, especially as new geopolitical challenges emerge.
Whether you’re a long-time follower of Arctic affairs or just beginning to explore this fascinating subject, this conversation offers valuable perspective on one of Canada’s most strategically significant regions.
