Arctic airships to dot Canadian skies, make cold-weather travel a breeze

[Ranzo]

Traveling through the colder parts of the world has always been a challenge. There are dangers inherent to almost all forms of arctic travel, and the unforgiving environment makes getting stranded especially dire. Those trekking through Canada's harsh north have had it especially rough due to climate changes that make the country's notoriously treacherous ice roads thinner and less reliable with each passing year. But thanks to renewed interest in airship technology, Canadians will soon have a new option for transporting people and goods around the icy territories.

Interesting project. But just in case they plan an invasion, let's keep a wary eye to the North, eh?
