Because of the way the earth is shaped, the shortest route is the northern route. Missiles will be going through Alaska (or north pole). Or if for some reason Europe attacks us- it will go through Greenland and Canada from that direction.
What irks me about Martin's indecisiveness on this file is the impression he's pandering to the anti-American sentiments on the Canadian left by not participating. But then, if you ask me, the Liberals have been playing the anti-American card for at least the past three years, which disgusts me no end.
Vote for the Bigot American Bumlick (oops I mean Tory) party then.

^ Oh, no, when you've got MPs and Prime Ministerial aides trotting out lines like "American bastards" and stomping on presidential dolls on television, it's more than just "We're not American". (Note that Parrish wasn't turfed until she trash-talked Martin himself; I think there's even money that if she hadn't done that, she'd still be in caucus)
It's been toned down under Martin to some degree (well, at least since Parrish got kicked out), but the undercurrent's still there.
It's more than an undercurrent - it's mainstream.
BTW, have you ever asked yourself how they will intercept incoming missiles, where they will intercept incoming missiles and what happens to the people below the interception?

All Russian and Chinese missiles would enter via the poles, as the Chinese house their missles in the extreme north. NK's would probobly clip British Colombia, depending on where in the US they are shooting at.
Assuming, of course, that the guidance worked and it didn't sail off towards Regina.

One would hope out at sea, or maybe over Northern BC. If they had to wait too long to intercept, one might fall on Vancouver.
Most of these warheads have a deadman, don't they? The warhead is activated by pressure, isn't it? Once they go up, they are going to make a very large bang when they come down again, whereever they come down. Or was that just scifi a book I read?
Anyways, it would be good if issues like these drove people from the centre and back to the left and the right. There's no way the Liberals are ever going to be turfed until that happens.

While Paul and Jean have been keeping the centre-right happy with tax cuts, they have had to throw a few sops to the centre-left. Like being kneejerk anti-American when they think American media isn't paying attention.

No, it's mainstream mainstream. Quible if you will, but a majority of Canadians are opposed to getting into bed with the US on missile 'defence'.
Why? Because they know that US missile interceptions will involve nuclear detonations over Canadian territory. And they know that if the US ever feels secure against nuclear retaliation, they are likely to consider a first strike against the enemy du jour.

From one of my friends (an ex-Canadian bigwig diplomat): "the truth about Canadian politics is that the liberals win."
The Tories cannot win ever, unless they go back to Joe Clark style sensible conservatism. In fact they should before they get whupped again.
No-one in Ontario or Quebec is going to vote for Harper and his gayhating cohorts. And without either one of these the Tories are sunk.
