It gets more interesting...
Quote:
Two proposals to steer icebergs from Canada's east coast to parched portions of southern Europe are raising questions about who really owns these frozen masses of freshwater, potentially worth millions of dollars each.
It's an untapped resource that one iceberg expert says could again put Canada on a collision course with Denmark, which is already contesting this country's ownership of tiny Hans Island, situated between Ellesmere Island and Danish-controlled Greenland.
Arctic icebergs typically break free from ice shelves in Greenland and drift west and south along the coasts of Newfoundland and Labrador. It was a mountain of ice tracking that route in 1912 that doomed the Titanic.
