Canada makes a run for the Pole Posted on August 9, 2007 by Robin And besides Putin dropping flags on the North Pole seabed and claiming the Pole is connected to Russia through an underwater ridge (see Putin on the Warpath), now Canada is running for it’s claim by putting an underwater ship base thing down, to the anger of the US who says it’s in “neutral waters”. People are estimating around 25% of the world’s undiscovered oil is lying under the pole.
