Video: Icebreaker stuck fast in frozen Saimaa canal
YLE: The Saimaa canal, which connects eastern Finland to Vyborg, remains closed thanks to unusually thick ice cover. The canal is currently topped with than half a metre of strong ice, causing one icebreaker to get stuck when it tried to clear the waterway on Wednesday.
If you would only listen to the BBC you would know the truth of this. They recently explained that the increase of Antarctic sea ice was due to the increased melt of the Antarctic land ice.
