Canada Saw It First: Why NATO Is Only Now Waking Up to the Arctic Reality

For decades, Canada warned the world about the Arctic — its strategic value, its security risks, and its future as a geopolitical flashpoint. Most of NATO ignored it.
Now, they’re finally paying attention.

As melting ice opens new shipping routes and Russia rapidly militarizes the far north, the Arctic has gone from a frozen afterthought to a frontline of global power competition. Canada’s long-standing claims, patrol strategies, and infrastructure investments suddenly look less like overcaution—and more like foresight.

In this video, we break down why Canada was right about the Arctic all along, what changed NATO’s thinking, and how this icy region could shape the future of global security, trade, and military strategy.
