Hows the northwest passage conflict gonna go down?

Asked by Mtl_zack (6778points) March 1st, 2009

Due to global warming, the northwest passage has been melting considerably. This passage is very good militarily and economically because of trade routes and possible oil drilling.

The passage is located within Canadian borders, and recently Russia wants to claim it and has been sending bombers into Canadian airspace. Apparently, America has gotten involved somehow in claiming that area.

How do you think this conflict will be resolved? Will Canada go to war with Russia?
