I’m wholly supportive of northern development. If all of the proposed economic activity comes to fruition in the future in terms of resource extraction and shipping then we’ll need the people and infrastructure in place to facilitate that. It’d only make sense for defense and development to go hand in hand. After all a more heavily populated area is much more easily defensible.
Looking back at the article I’m surprised it didn’t touch on that subject. I guess my brain just filled in that obvious gap.
