Neighbor across the street is of Polish descent and he is from up north.

It is interesting that the North Pole is fixed but the magnetic North 
pole wanders.

i think so too and the way it wanders now could do wonders for a compass
i guess there's some kind of propagation taking place with the magnetism

In general it is NOT.  To begin with, Terra (Earth) revolves around Sol
(the Sun).

The magnetic south pole is moving far slower than the north.

soon Starfart's weak field brain will be re-magnetized to the new
magnetic pole coordinates

I'm pretty sure this COULD cause Brain Climate Change that might end all 
sentient life on Earth. That pretty much saves Starfart though.

Start at point A.

Go one unit south.

Go one unit east.

Go one unit north.

You are now back at A.

Where can A possibly be?

The geographic North Pole is in the Arctic.

The magnetic north pole is moving around and moving
away from the geographic north pole.

Mount Mitchell, viewed from Mount Craig
Highest point
Elevation
6,684 ft (2,037 m) [1]

british columbia highest point

Due to active tectonic uplifting, Mount Logan is still rising in height. 
Before 1992, the exact elevation of Mount Logan was unknown and 
measurements ranged from 5,959 to 6,050 metres (19,551 to 19,849 ft). In 
May 1992, a GSC expedition climbed Mount Logan and fixed the current 
height of 5,959 metres (19,551 ft) using GPS.[5]

It's actually over water ( frozen ).

It's the point where Polaris remains fixed ( nearly ),
 at the very top of the zenith.
