EXCERPT FROM ARTICLE: In the summer of 1998 the Canadian icebreaker
Louis St. Laurent had a very notable experience in the Canadian Arctic.
In past voyages, the heavy ice pack that is flushed south out of the
permanent ice pack in the north forced ships like the Louis St. Laurent
to the southern reaches of the Northwest Passage. On this occasion,
however, she was able to sail north and west without any of the expected
ice encounters-and, as a bonus, discovered relics of a British
expedition that had searched in vain for the Franklin expedition 149
years ago.
