Don't forget that a big reason watersheds matters is when you engage in damming those rivers.
But yeah, the part I'm missing is where the Quebec claim even comes from.
Like is it literally anything north of us is ours?
I've never understood why Quebec has any claim to most of its northern bits. Nor do it make sense that most northern ends of the other mainland provinces are under control of the south.
Newfies didn't need a territorial claim to head to Fort Mack. We were going no matter what.
