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. However, Canadians may well have a need to prepare for new security and environmental challenges associated with a gradual increase in summer-months foreign shipping, which offers little or no challenge to Canada's occupancy of the high Arctic Archipelago.
