And they won't give them drinking water but send guns and Missiles.

Leave that TRAITOR up there on the Frontline

[abrahamdozer]

Take them up to the new Arctic naval base in Nanisivik that was started isn't getting built because ... well ... "There aren't any votes in that!"

FJT and his entire regime, beyond me how anyone supports it

Hey Justin. How much in greenhouse gasses are you emitting on this trip. You've been travelling a lot lately.

[MapleMAGA]

What a complete waste of time and resources. Another huge use of fossil fuels for nothing but a photo op. I wonder how much this pointless excursion cost the taxpayers.

[rogerlenton]

Canada literally has no Arctic defences. What are these people talking about?

[petepete]

Its the minerals at the sea bottom!!!

[osiris]

Protect the arctic but we can’t protect ourselves huh?

[slytester]

If we had chosen the SAAB planes or at least a good number of them we would already have a stronger defence of the arctic. Don't even get me going about the total lack of ice breakers with at the same time struggling shipyards here in Canada.

lol nah he is up there inspecting to make sure all that money they spent on norad is going well, clearly something is going down when they drop a billion bucks in a "recession"

[LifeOdysseyMotivation]

One of my dreams is to travel to Nunavut, Norwest T., Yukon, and the Arctic region.

I wonder how many countries actually practice in the arctic. I know the Russians spend a lot of time practicing there.

[gletussmaximus]

Less jet trips would be a good start.

Criminister of Canada 👎🏻
He has no clue what he is doing. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[ceciliakilgour]

Love the elder woman’s sense of humour. A gentle woman. Great choice to light the symbolic flame.

[skeet]

What's the carbon foot print on the travel there, and foot print from the nato secretary to get here?

[jaypee]

CAF will decide what is best for Canada. Not the Liberal party. 😁
