The only dispute that requires negotiation is the offshore boundary north of the Canada-Alaska border. Canada interprets the boudary agreement to indicate the boundary on land continues north into the sea. The US argues the boudary follows the longitudinal meridian which is in their favor. The US claim that waters between the Canadian arctic islands forms an international waterway are not valid under maritime law or any other law, but that doesn't stop the USA or Russia from traversing Canadian territory on and below the surface without the required permits from the Candadian gov't.
