60% of Danes consider the US an enemy in a new poll.

The 17% who still considers the US an ally is likely a combo of right wing crackpots and randos who don't follow the news much.

Smart. I hope the rest of NATO wisens up.

Even if we eventually get a sane government again, remember what kind of people make up a significant minority here. You shouldn't trust us again.

Good point. We'd do well to remember that the small Democrat minority are also a weird bunch.

Canada plants a flag in Greenland
Quote"I am underscoring that opening this consulate has been part of our intentions in our Arctic foreign policy for some time,

:ph34r:


All along, the Danes and the Greenlanders, they were worried about the loud mouth from the US...  here we go, quietly, just under the guise of a consulate, one flag at a time...

REMEMBER HANS ISLAND!!!

:lol:



It's a nice thing. There'll eventually be increased cooperation between Inuktitut speaking populations of Greenland and Canada, and this can be a good place to coordinate relations.  

Obviously, there's economic interests, that's the main reason.  I could see Canadian companies operating in our Arctic circle eventually supplanting American companies in Greenland.  It's a long term game.  This is what Carney's administration is aiming for.

I think the Americans have lost big and they don't even know realize it yet.  Greenland was their rink.  No one was challenging them on this ice. Now it's open business for everyone.  I wouldn't even be surprised if Greenland and Denmark openly invite Chinese corporations in the future to compete with others.
