The eastern part of Alaska is generally more mountainous than the western part. The Coast Mountains and the St. Elias Range, which include some of the highest peaks in North America, are located in eastern Alaska. In contrast, western Alaska features more lowland areas and gentle hills, with the Aleutian Range being less prominent compared to the towering mountains found in the east.

Alaska is contiguous to Canada, and geographically Alaska has more in common with Canada than with the USA. However, the citizens of Alaska are Americans and are brought up to believe that the USA is the greatest nation on earth. They would take much persuading before they would abandon the mother country. Certainly the USA has a fine Constitution, but America is a state with a great gap between rich and poor, and much racial discrimination. Canada is a federal parliamentary democracy on the British model, which is arguably more accessible to the common man. Anyone can be President of the USA (provided they are a multi-millionaire). Great wealth is unnecessary to achieve entry in Canadian politics.

The vibrant French-speaking state of Quebec adds an interesting element to Canadian life. Vancouver is alleged to have one of the happiest and most contented populations in the world.

I would like to see Alaska leave the USA and join Canada, as it would make a sensible and cohesive go-political unit. (Much of the western coast of northern America was unfairly granted to Alaska rather than Canada; an a federation would address this issue). As the North west passage becomes open to shipping, Canada-Alaska will become globally significant.

Will it ever happen? I doubt it. Alaska has oil which the USA would not give up; and Alaskan citizens may be blind to the benefits of being Canadian. But it would be very good if it were to happen!

A pipeline requisition is a request for candidates in a talent pipeline, often used in recruitment to fill future job openings. It allows hiring managers to proactively identify and engage potential candidates before a specific position becomes available. This approach helps streamline the hiring process by maintaining a pool of qualified applicants ready to be considered when a vacancy arises. It can also enhance the overall efficiency of talent acquisition strategies.

Driving from Alaska to Mexico would take you through a diverse range of biomes, including the tundra of northern Alaska, characterized by its cold temperatures and permafrost. As you travel south, you would transition into the boreal forest (taiga) with its coniferous trees. Further along, the temperate deciduous forest biome would emerge, featuring a variety of tree species that change with the seasons. Finally, as you approach Mexico, you would encounter the arid desert biome and, ultimately, the tropical and subtropical climates found in southern Mexico.

What happens if Ted Stevens wins re-election to the Senate and then resigns? ALASKA DISPATCH, Tundra Talk NOVEMBER 05, 2008 There’s lots of speculation on what would happen if Ted Stevens wins and then either resigns or is expelled from the Senate. Would Gov. Sarah Palin try to make an appointment? Would she run in a special election to fill his seat? In 2004, the Alaska Legislature revised the law on how the state fills Senate vacancies. Before then, the governor had the power to fill the seat. This happened twice in previous years: Gov. Wally Hickel appointed Stevens in 1968. Then, in November 2002, when Frank Murkowski was elected governor, he appointed his daughter, Lisa, to fill his Senate vacancy. The Murkowski appointment angered many Alaskans, and thus began a push to change the law. In 2004, the Legislature passed a bill requiring a special election but left open the option for the governor to appoint a temporary replacement until an election could be held. Later in 2004, Alaskans passed a ballot measure that also said there must be a special election but stripped the governor of her authority to appoint a temporary replacement. The two laws could conflict because the 17th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution says that a state legislature can grant a governor power to make a Senate appointment. But backers of the 2004 citizen initiative claim that when voters passed the ballot measure excluding such appointments, the new law trumped the Legislature’s from earlier that year. “The people in Alaska enjoy the same power as the Legislature,” Jeff Feldman, an Anchorage lawyer who worked on the citizen initiative, said Wednesday The Attorney General has not been asked to review the law this week, said Mike Barnhill, an assistant Alaska Attorney General. “This would only become an issue if the governor made a (temporary) appointment,” he said Wednesday. “Right now it’s all hypothetical.” Sharon Leighow, a Palin spokeswoman, said there “has been no discussion” in the governor’s office about whether Palin would consider running for Stevens’ seat, should he win and then resign or be expelled. Feldman said he doubts Palin would try to make a temporary appointment. “It would be an odd thing for her do, given she has run as reformist,” he said. ............... http://www.alaskadispatch.com/tundra-talk/1-talk-of-the-tundra/286-what-happens-if-ted-stevens-wins-and-then-resigns.html
