What is this US drilling company you are talking about?jdschall said:And more importantly off-shore oil rights. Both nations are trying to claim territorial waters so they can have rights to oil deposits.

The US has already said it regards the passage as an international strait, not Canadian waters.
Russia, Norway and Denmark also have competing claims to the continental shelf and the natural resources such as gas and oil that may lie beneath the sea bed."
