In this episode of Defence Deconstructed we sit down with Captain William Woityra to discuss his new paper, “ICE Pact Lurches to Life”. This underscores the ICE Pact as a trilateral alliance between Canada, Finland, and the United States, with a specific focus on collaborative efforts in icebreaker shipbuilding and the valuable insights shared by National Coordinators during our co-hosted event with the Government of Canada on June 11.
