Arctic and Northern Policy Framework
  • As part of Canada's Arctic and Northern Policy Framework Canada has committed to establishing regular Arctic dialogues with Nordic states and key non-Arctic states to discuss region-based issues, potential northern projects, and issues of mutual interest.
  • In the Canada-US Roadmap to a Renewed Partnership in 2021, the two nations pledged to expand the Arctic Dialogue efforts to cover issues related to continental security, economic and social development, and Arctic governance.
