The North Pole is Moving

North Magnetic Pole Moving East Due to Core Flux:

Earth’s north magnetic pole is racing toward Russia at almost 40 miles (64 kilometers) a year due to magnetic changes in the planet’s core, new research says.

Bizarre. Does this cause problems with navigation? I remember reading an article once about how the alternating magnetic strips along the mid-Atlantic trench were caused by the poles switching places over time.
