I never seen a Canada how do I know they exist?

Ever flown from Europe to the US or vice versa? Then you've been above Canada.

Yeah those layovers on Baffin Island are popular

I'm not talking about layovers, I'm talking about the fact that the shortest route between Europe and the US is over the Arctic and Canada

That's impossible, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line but the earth is curved.

Conclusion: when travelling, there is never a shortest distance.
