...completion), 23 TD, 18 INT, 741 rushing yards, record: 10-8Pizzotti: 98-for-186 ( 52.7 percent), 1,404 yards (14.33 per completion), 7 TD, 6 INT, record: 4-0The stats don’t lie: O’Hagan has been more accurate and more fleet of foot.

In truth, of course, it isn't military encroachment the Canadians fear so much as the environmental peril that may come from unregulated use of their waters. Cruise ships transporting Arctic ecotourists, many of them Russian vessels hired out to Western tour operators, anchored off Resolute 17 times this year alone. Once the Northwest Passage becomes not just a tourist destination but a viable commercial route that would cut an astonishing 5,000 miles (8,000 km) from the distance between Asia...
