This 2011 video from the Canadian Foundation for Climate and Atmospheric Sciences (CFCAS) makes the point that Canada is truly an Arctic nation. The Arctic makes up over 40 percent of our landmass, and includes nearly three quarters of Canada’s coastline. It’s an essential part of our national identity and our climate. Sadly since this video was made climate change has continued to significantly undermine the Arctic. In 2012 we saw levels of Arctic ice melt that are unprecedented in recorded history.
