Among all actors, the cooperation-competition relationship between the United States and Canada after the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS III) has been an interesting one, and is worth a closer examination.\nThe United States and Canada has often been considered as close allies, with their policies supporting or complementing one another. However, in the Arctic context, there is a possibility of competing military interests. As a global hegemon, the United States only sees the Arctic as a part of its global strategy. Therefore, it would be in its best interest to maximize freedom of navigation within this region in order to justify its navigation rights in other waters. However, if we observe this issue from the Canadian perspective, while the Northwest Passage is militarily significant to Canada since it penetrates its northern territories, being an Arctic state is also part of Canadian identity. Thus, it would be reasonable for Canada to expand the jurisdiction as a costal state to manage the information and the way of access of passing vessels.\nThis thesis will start off from Alliance Theory literature, and observe how the United States and Canada interact during UNCLOS III, as well as how they secure their interests in the Arctic region through general Arctic ...
