Canada and Greenland 2-3-25

In keeping with Trump’s resurrection of the Monroe Doctrine, Trump is concerned that China and Russia have “designs” on Greenland. Canada is also not able to defend its borders with the Arctic Circle. 

Canada and Greenland are being considered for Annexation. Both countries have expressed “no interest” in this suggestion.

Canada has several options to work toward being able to defend their Northern Border.

Since his election in November, Trump has taunted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau by suggesting his country should be made the 51st US state. Trump is also lowering the US Corporate Tax to 15%, matching Canada’s 15% Corporate Tax to allow US auto manufacturing to return to the US. Trump is goading Trudeau to get off his ass and build Canada’s private sector enough to be able to afford to protect his northern border. Trudeau now has to deal with Trump’s 25% Tariff threat to stop Illegals and Fentanyl from crossing the Canada Border. Trudeau is expected to lose his job to a Canadian Conservative Candidate on 10-20-25. Canada also needs to maintain its forests to prevent forest fires.

Annual change in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Canada 2024, by industry. Canada's transportation and warehousing industry had grown by 4.9 percent between February 2023 and February 2024. The mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction industry followed with 2.5 percent.

Greenland has other options if Denmark can grow its GDP to contribute 5% to NATO in addition to upping its defense of Greenland’s Arctic Border. NATO would then defend Greenland.

China is swimming in debt from government overreach and excessive spending. Russia is about to get a revenue decrease when US oil supply exceeds demand. Trump wants China to reform and behave. The EV Mandate has been cancelled in the US and our need for rare earth minerals has diminished. The US may have enough minerals to supply US demand for chips.
