Canada urged to build a military space strategy for the Arctic

Original: Defending the high ground - Why Canada urgently needs a military space strategy to protect the Arctic: Joe Varner for Inside Policy

Joe Varner, writing for the Macdonald-Laurier Institute's Inside Policy, argues that Canada urgently needs a military space strategy to defend its Arctic. He contends that satellite surveillance, communications and space-based monitoring are increasingly critical to asserting sovereignty over Canada's northern territories as strategic competition in the region grows.

Why now: Growing concern over Arctic security and Canada's defence capabilities has put a spotlight on space-based military needs.
