Why was this motto sea to sea chosen for Canada?
Because Canada (Ontario and Quebec) does not think of the North very often and their objective was to block off the USA from advancing on Canada from the West. That meant getting BC into Confederation expanding Confederation all the way to the Pacific Coast. These days Canada is more likely to use the motto Sea to Sea to Sea. This is a response to the suggestion that Canada does not have a good claim to Northern Lands or Waters and in particular the Northwest Passage.
What was the conflict between Canada and the US in regards to the northwest passage?
What IS the conflict. The U.S. and most of the world claims it is an International Waterway. Canada claims it is a passage in Canadian Water, inside Canada. A look at a Canadian map and that is what it looks like. But Canada has done little to assert their claim. A big failure is the inability to control or administer the passage militarily. Only recently has Canada acquired Submarines needed to patrol the passage and the defense of the passage rests with a foreign power the United States, one of the nations claiming it is an international water way. Canada lacks the icebreakers needed and cannot or is not able to even keep their Arctic port, Churchill, open year round, let alone administer the passage year round. Canada owns all the land around the passage but even there some question who really owns it, the Inuit or the Canadian Government. Canada has signed many agreements undermining Canadian ownership of much of Canada and that includes the Arctic and the passage. Of course none of that even begins to touch on the international legal issues currently being discussed. By the time the passage is being used year round by many nations it will be settled by the many lawyers and diplomats involved. Or at least we hope so.
