Canada needs new approach to meet Arctic challenges, conference hears

“We need to look at a vision for the North beyond the electoral cycle and start planning for 20, 30 and 50 year outlooks where important infrastructure can be built and finalized,” Conservative MP John Nater told Eye on the Arctic.
