Griffiths discusses whether the undoubted thinning of sea ice in the various waterways that make up the Northwest Passage will produce not only an increase in intercontinental shipping, but a shipping-based challenge to Canada's sovereignty over its Arctic waters. Griffiths argues that climate change presents no serious sovereignty problem in the Northwest Passage where commercial navigation is concerned.
