US to control parts of Greenland under Trump deal

The United States will control parts of Greenland by designating them as sovereign base areas under the terms of a proposed deal agreed in Davos.

Under the deal, which mimics Britain’s agreement with Cyprus, American bases on the Arctic island would be considered US territory, The Telegraph understands.

It would allow the US to carry out military and intelligence operations, as well as training, while also facilitating some local development, potentially including rare earth mining.


More … What we know about Trump’s ‘framework of future deal’ over Greenland

US President Donald Trump has announced there is a “framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland”.

The statement came as a surprise after days of mounting tensions, culminating with a threat to impose economic sanctions on eight close US allies which have opposed his plans to seize the semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.

So what could this deal entail and will it be acceptable to Denmark and Greenland – both of which have made it clear they will not relinquish sovereignty of the world’s largest island in the Arctic?


Can’t help but notice that Carney is never in the loop.

House Oversight Committee votes to hold Clintons in contempt of Congress

The House Oversight Committee voted in support of holding former president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress on Wednesday after the couple refused to appear for closed-door transcribed depositions related to the committee’s ongoing investigation of deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

A resolution holding Hillary Clinton in contempt passed largely along party lines, 28 to 15. Three Democrats voted with Republicans: Reps. Melanie Stansbury (R-New Mexico), Summer Lee (D-Pennsylvania) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan). The resolution holding Bill Clinton in contempt received more Democratic support, and passed 34 to 8.

Trump is right. America cannot afford to leave Greenland to Denmark

Europe and the US are in a full on dogfight over Greenland. Donald Trump’s late-night Truth Social posts, lambasting America’s European allies for their stance on the issue, prompted Emmanuel Macron to hit back against Washington in pointed terms: “We do prefer respect to bullies”. The US president’s earlier threats to impose tariffs to force the purchase of the semi-autonomous island received a similarly frosty reaction, including a rebuke from Jens-Frederik Nielsen, Greenland’s prime minister. Even Britain’s Sir Keir Starmer, careful with his words, condemned the tactic.

Former RCMP Director Alarmed by New Canada-China Agreement on Public Safety Cooperation

Former national director of the RCMP’s proceeds-of-crime program Garry Clement says Ottawa’s new agreement with Beijing on public safety is concerning because it potentially opens the door for the Chinese regime to “capitalize on intelligence.”

Prime Minister Mark Carney made several agreements with Beijing during his visit to China last week as part of a broader effort to establish closer ties with China and boost non-U.S. exports.

Democrats Created An Unconstrained Immigration Problem. It Requires An ‘Unconstrained’ Solution

What’s playing out in Minneapolis and other major cities controlled by Democrats is as simple as this: That party willfully ignored our nation’s laws to import millions of destitute foreigners for the purpose of loading them up with welfare and earning their political support, and now that they’re out of power, they’re trying to keep their new constituents here by any means possible.

Big Brother is watching your carbon footprint

A REUTERS headline regarding the EU’s ‘Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism‘ provides a snapshot of what we should expect over the next few years in relation to sustainable development (SD) goals.

Since the early 1970s, SD has been pushed as an ideological no-brainer by the fanatical green lobby – a consensual and unquestioned ideal that we must all strive for and also suffer for if necessary (£4.5trillion estimated cost of Net Zero, anyone?)

‘Undeniable’: The Many Security Risks of Chinese EVs as Canada Opens Its Markets

China crappy electric cars, EV

As Canada moves to slash tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, a growing number of reports and researchers are warning about security risks and the potential for espionage by the Chinese Communist Party through these vehicles.

When asked for evidence to support his concerns about the security risks posed by Chinese electric vehicles (EVs), Ontario Premier Doug Ford pointed to the fact that everyone who accompanied Prime Minister Mark Carney to China, including Canadian reporters, was instructed to use burner phones for security reasons.

Climate Change is Not Causing Mass Extinctions, Says Bombshell Royal Society Paper

When the history of the great Net Zero climate hoax comes to be written, pride of place will be given to the terrifying sixth mass extinction scare. Mainstream media barely question the idea that human-controlled climate is wreaking havoc with the life chances of millions of animal and plant species around the world. In November 2024, the Guardian reported that “as the planet warms up, scientists predict a series of ‘extinction cliffs’”. We are in danger of forgetting what the climate crisis means: extinction, was the cheerful article headline. But a recent bombshell report from the UK Royal Society has knocked seven bells out of all this nonsense by showing that species-level extinctions related to climate change “have not significantly increased over the last approximately 200 years”.

Michelle Rempel Garner: Nice speech Carney, but what are you going to do about it?

Tuesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered a speech at the World Economic Forum that rightly named the hard realities of a fractured geopolitical system, and the urgent need for middle powers like Canada to step up with resolve and realism.

Words do matter, especially in moments of crisis like the one Canada presently finds itself in. But to protect our country, Canadians cannot allow themselves to believe that words alone are enough. Action is needed, too.
