The Canadian government is considering sending a small number of troops to participate in training exercises in Greenland, following the lead of multiple European countries, a senior federal government source tells CTV News.
This, as U.S. President Donald’s Trump continues to insist he “needs” the Danish autonomous territory for national security purposes, and ramps up demands to take control of the island.
A final decision about whether to send any Canadian troops has not been made, according to the source. The contingent is likely to be very small, and a symbolic show of support.
A bloc of European nations has already sent troops for military exercises around Greenland. On Saturday, Trump said Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland will face a 10 per cent tariff starting Feb. 1 in consequence.
“Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown,” wrote Trump on Truth Social Saturday. “This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable.”
Germany sent about a dozen troops to the island, and Canada’s showing would likely be smaller than that.
Earlier on Sunday, Carney told reporters in Doha, Qatar that Canada is “concerned” about U.S. “escalation.”

Trump could send buses with illegal criminal aliens.
Will the Canadians last longer in Greenland than the 15
Germans?
Just bankrupt Canada.
Blame it on Canada!
The purpose is to show that Canada hates Trump too.
But we’ll let Canada bomb The Baldwin Residence.
what a clown show
how about sending them to Ukraine instead?
That's insane.
Who composed Canada’s national anthem?
Calixa Lavallée, a Quebecois concert pianist, composed the melody in 1880.
The original French lyrics were penned the same year by judge Adolphe-Basile Routhier, as a patriotic poem celebrating Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day.
An English translation came in 1906, and many more followed over the years. But the one with staying power turned out to be Robert Stanley Weir’s 1908 take, which only slightly differs from the version we use today.
Apparently we no longer have any allies.
But some FReepers think that is just fine.
(Shaking my head)
🚨 JUST IN: In a chilling escalation, Canadian PM Mark Carney warned America by saying, "Our full partnership and obligations to Article 5 stand. We stand FULLY BEHIND them."

The world is a different place from 20 years ago.
Our allies in NATO are not going to help us.
Canada is more worried about America invading Greenland than China and India invading their own land
If we have no allies, we will lose. Even though we are a superpower, us against the world is a losing proposition.
LOL! Eh?
Oh please, these fickle goofballs are not our allies anymore over this, they aren’t our allies anymore because Trump is ripping apart their NWO. They have turned into tyrants and turned their countries over to muslims.
They can’t defend themselves at this point without us. NATO is a joke without us.
