Many thanks to Tom Fries of The Arctic Institute in Washington, DC, for his generous coverage of my column in Northern Public Affairs over the past couple of months.  I especially appreciate his recent kind words:

Anthony Speca’s writing this quarter for Northern Public Affairs has been an enormous pleasure to read, and a brief update to three of his recent pieces touches on some of the most interesting political and legal issues currently being served in the Arctic buffet: Canada’s seal hunt, whaling policy, and Greenpeace’s “Save the Arctic” campaign. Wry and eminently readable.

Every week, Tom puts together an extremely useful synopsis of recent Arctic-related news and analysis for The Arctic Institute.  Unlike many media aggregators, who mostly provide laundry lists of newsy links, Tom takes the extra—and extra-hard—step of digesting the week’s media and summarising it for his subscribers.  This is a news round-up at its best, and it deserves a wide readership.
