1. Russia secretly had maps so detailed of the Canadian Arctic during the Cold-War that other ships even now use them over official maps.
2. During the Cold War, the USSR was able to tell a Soviet passport was a forged and fake because the staples in real passports would corrode due to the poor quality of metal.
3. The Canadian government forcibly relocated Inuit to the most northern parts of the country during the Cold War in order to assert its sovereignty in the arctic.

Hope this helps!
