Infrastructure = logistics = defense. Plenty of roads that need building in the north if we wanna be able to maintain a solid presence.

The expansion of the port of Churchill and land transport links to it could even be considered part of that millitary logistics pipeline (as well as increasing our export capacity).

At one point we had a rocket launching facility there as well

Northern roads are a tricky thing. Permafrost contains a lot of frost.

They'll probably have to be gravel and maintained regularly.
