The silence from sources such as CBC is deafening.
The increase in ice in the Antarctic is even more dramatic!
Get back on this in September
Why not get back to us in the late 1800’s,early 1900’s when the Arctic was ice free? Oh wait. History for the eco-cultists/alarmists only started yesterday.Anti-human bast**ds.

Apart from needing a time machine, the arctic wasn’t ice-free during that period. Incidents could be multiplied.
You must be thinking of this. A local phenomenon.
Far gone ice hole my asp!
And yet every government with territory in the Arctic is preparing for ice-free summers.
Stop it. Stop being so thick.
Yes John, our government says its preparing for ice free summers, can you name one piece of infrastructure being built to facilitate the use of ice free arctic waters?
Best description of the ice free arctic is Tiny Tim;The Icecaps are Melting.
Says it all really and was performed in the 1960s.
Well said.
Yes.

Climate hippie Harper announced the building of a new sea port in Resolute Bay.
“Get back on this in September” OK
Why would you provide a link from 2007? Your middle name isn’t Credence is it Johnny.
Port Churchill… eh? Not that it means a damned thing in regard to hysterical climate alarmism.
BTW … could that graph be less statistically significant?

Two firms [Canadian August 2012; American 2014] are building optic fibre cables from Tokyo to the UK through the Canadian arctic.
While the “bewildered herd” is being led to believe that AGW is a hoax, the people who are paying for that PR campaign know better & are putting their money where their mouth isn’t —
// [The] a 15,600-kilometre link […] will cut the present round-trip time, or “latency”, between London and Tokyo from 230 milliseconds to 168 milliseconds, […] Reduced transmission time will be a boon for high-frequency traders who will gain crucial milliseconds on each automated trade. //
Whoopie. Some nearby Inuit villages are also promised really good internet access.
When will they build?
Plans are nice, when do the ships enter the arctic?

Good point. I checked around a bit. The above-mentioned firms: Canadian — Arcticfibre are now saying 2014. American — Arcticlink seems to have disappeared. There is a Russian proposal for the Northeast Passage which offered tenders last year, but THEIR website seems also to have gone.
From what I have been able to glean, the conditions are O.K. but getting the money is going slowly.
See this Cable map for the Canadian & Russian proposed routes. [And the actual cables]
So no actual infrastructure yet.
