There is an actual answer here which is that most of it is frozen anyway and just clearing the ports they have is hard.
This is why canals are rare in the northern hemisphere, start to be common in Europe, and in the rest of the world most land is either very flat and smooth or not irregular enough.
Canals are one of the worst ways to expand access since most focus is on utilizing ports that already exist rather than creating a shitty port that is somewhere nobody lives.

There's a canal there but it's secret (underground), they built it to move submarines stealthily, that's why you can't see it on gmaps, it's underground.
