Viewed from the perspective of several hundred years of history, the Arctic character and Northernness have never been recorded in the development plans or government programmes for the area that later became known as Finland in as much detail as they were in Finland’s Arctic Strategy published in 2010.

Lisäksi oppaasta löytyy tietoa Kela-korvattavista matkoista. Kainuussa Kainuun sote myöntää oikeuden käyttää kuljetuspalvelua muualla paitsi Puolangalla.
