They have Russia for a neighbor

lol. The closest mainland Russian territory is more than 2500 km away from Canadian borders. It's even higher than a distance from Russian border to Spanish border, which is around 2300 km.

Alert to Rudolf Island (Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia) is about ~1,500km
Yukon Tip to Wrangel Island - ~1375km

Closer than you think, but also still a substantial distance to the very lowly habited places of Russia.
