But Canada is still assisting the Americans in developing the very technology that could enable them to one day seize control of all or part of Canada's Arctic archipelago. In that year the U.S. Coast Guard heavy icebreaker USCGC Polar Sea sailed from Greenland to the Chukchi Sea through the Northwest Passage.

Can NATO survive Trump? RadioDuration 30:05Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump set off a firestorm with comments dismissing the military contributions of fellow NATO members during the war in Afghanistan. This follows the president’s aggressive bid for Greenland, a self-governing territory of NATO-ally Denmark, which brought into question whether NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, could survive without America, its strongest and richest member. And while some kind of agreement on Greenland now seems to be on the table, and Trump appears to be backing down, today we’re asking what damage has already been done to NATO.

Canada is set to name its first foreign interference commissioner. Foreign interference legislation adopted by Parliament in 2024 obliges the government to consult opposition parties before formally naming a candidate. Anandasangaree's comments come a year-and-a-half after Parliament voted to create the position, as well as a foreign interference registry listing those who have made arrangements to work in Canada as agents on behalf of foreign governments. In January 2025, an inquiry headed by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue concluded in its final report that transnational repression in Canada was a "genuine scourge" and that the People's Republic of China was the "most active perpetrator of foreign interference targeting Canadian democratic institutions." Anandasangaree's comments also come months after an investigation by CBC News documented cases of Chinese transnational repression in Canada.

LISTEN | FRONT BURNER: Front Burner 36:50 Stephen Miller: ICE’s ideologue-in-chiefMassive anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis intensified over the weekend, in the wake of the second fatal shooting of an American citizen involving federal law enforcement agents in the city this month. Today, we’ll be talking about Stephen Miller, Donald Trump’s deputy chief of staff for policy, and how the deadly ICE surge in Minnesota is only the latest example of domestic policy that he has championed. In Trump's second administration, Miller is emerging as the main architect and enforcer of Trump's signature policies: from hardline immigration policies and mass deportations, to retaliation against the administration's perceived enemies, to increasingly aggressive foreign policy. He's the co-writer of a recent profile called "The Wrath of Stephen Miller."

Carney chose to deliver his speech only in front of media, surrounded by his ministers, in the Citadelle of Quebec, a military fortification that overlooks the Plains of Abraham. Even Liberal Party of Quebec leadership hopeful Charles Milliard, a proud federalist, said that Carney’s speech in Quebec City would have benefitted from more nuance. We cannot ignore the darker parts of our history.”Even some in Carney’s government did not exactly offer praise for the speech. “So, maybe Mark Carney could have talked about collaboration and unity, but without starting this discussion about the Plains of Abraham and giving a speech there,” he said. “The Plains of Abraham have never been the symbol of a supposed partnership or collaboration,” he continued.
