	Northern Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Northern Canada is the vast northernmost region of Canada variously defined by geography and politics.
		Canada, a country in northern North America whose population is concentrated along its frontier with the contiguous United States, is frequently reckoned to not have a 'south'.
		Canada asserts control of this passage as part of Canada's internal waters because it is within 20 km of Canadian islands; the US asserts that it is an international waterway.

	PBS - frontline: trail of a terrorist: is canada a safe haven for terrorists?
		Although Canada's parliament is currently debating [as of October 2001] new anti-terrorism measures that would give law enforcement broader powers to detain and deport those trying to enter the country illegally, questions remain about how well Canada can protect its borders.

	Canada: history to 1867 - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Canada: history to 1867
		By the Treaty of Paris, 1763 Canada and the disputed lands between the Ohio and Mississippi rivers passed into the hands of the British.
		The boundary between Canada and the USA had first been defined by another Treaty of Paris in 1783, at the end of the American Revolution, and was finally fixed, after a further threat of war with the USA, all the way to the Pacific Ocean by the Oregon Treaty of 1846.
		In the resulting Durham Report he suggested that the colony should be granted responsible government, and a legislative union of Upper and Lower Canada took place in 1841, forming the United Province of Canada.

	NORDLYS - Northern Lights
		Since people in olden times did not understand what northern lights were, they often created mythology and superstition to explain the dancing spirits or fighting hordes in the sky.
		Among the Eskimos in Greenland and northern Canada, the aurora was the realm of the dead, and when the lights changed rapidly, it meant that dead friends were trying to contact their living relatives.
		It was a common belief that the northern lights were the reflections in the sky of huge fires in the distant north, or that the mighty God himself lighted up the dark and cold parts of the world.

	Migration Information Source - Canada: A Northern Refuge for Central Americans
		Canada's generous accommodation of thousands of Cuban and Chilean refugees during the 1960s and 1970s made it an attractive option for would-be immigrants and refugees from throughout the Americas over the next few decades.
		Canada's response to the revolutions in Central America, which differed in significant ways from the United States, made it a natural haven for those displaced by the political upheaval.
		The United States, Mexico, and Canada have all revamped their immigration bureaucracies, increased security personnel at airports and border checkpoints, and enacted new — and highly controversial — detention and deportation procedures in order to discourage terrorists from establishing a foothold in their societies.

		Western Canada is renowned for its stunningly beautiful countryside; Eastern Canada mixes the flavour and charm of Europe with the bustle of trendy New York; wildlife viewing is at its best in Northern Canada; and, everywhere, you will be surprised by how much more there is to this country than just maple syrup and Mounties.
		However, there have been some small measures to tackle their remonstrations: in 1991, a 350,000 sq km (135,135 sq miles) area of the Northwest Territories was relinquished to the Inuit as the semi-autonomous Nunavut territory; and additional lands and measures of self-government were granted to the territory in 1999.
		In 1791, Canada was divided between regions occupied by the English-speaking and the longer-established French-speaking community but the arrangement did not work and was replaced by a unified system.

	Northern Research Development Program - Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada
		Canada’s North covers a vast area, has a small, mostly Aboriginal population and is of national economic and international strategic importance.
		At the same time, the costs of doing northern research are significantly higher than conducting comparable research in other parts of Canada.
		In short, capacity in the social sciences and humanities for northern research has eroded at the very time that significant social, economic and cultural change and adaptation is taking place in Canada’s North.

	Television Northern Canada
		Transponder rental costs were prohibitive and it became apparent early in the implementation process that a dedicated Northern transponder would be the solution to the negotiation problems involved in piggybacking on existing distribution services, such as that of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Northern Services or CANCOM (a commercially-based Northern distribution service).
		In January 1987, in response to the issue of distribution, Canadian aboriginal and Northern broadcasters met in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories to form a non-profit consortium with the goal of establishing a Pan-Northern television distribution service.
		The most current initiative of TVNC is their participation with ACL and Northwestern in the creation of a new company for the purpose of constructing an affordable and accessible high-speed communications network in Northern Canada.
