Anand backs Greenland’s security as Washington again talks of annexing territory


By Canadian Press on December 28, 2025.

OTTAWA — Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand affirmed support for Denmark, as Washington again says it wants to annex the country’s self-governing territory of Greenland.

Anand spoke Tuesday with her Danish counterpart Lars Lokke Rasmussen, and she wrote on social media that she conveyed to him “Canada’s support for the fundamental importance of respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity.”

Her comments come after U.S. President Donald Trump appointed an envoy to the territory, Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, who said the job aims “to make Greenland a part of the U.S.”

Landry later said Tuesday the U.S. is not “trying to conquer anybody” or to “to take over anybody’s country.”

Anand plans to visit the Greenland community of Nuuk to open a consulate early next year, and says Denmark is a major partner of Canada through the Arctic Council and the NATO defence alliance.

Earlier this month, Anand said she urged NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte to have the alliance focus more on the north during a meeting a in Brussels.

“Canada’s exported our defence and military spending over two world wars to Europe. It is time for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to focus as well on the North Atlantic and the Arctic,” she told the Canadian Club in Toronto on Dec. 12.

“We need to address these threats, and we need to address them together.”

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 24, 2025.

Canada can do little but speak words of support, because of the Liberals bankrupting our military for several decades leaving us vulnerable at a time when the world is in chaos. They always thought that the US would come running to our defense if another country tried to invade . . . just brilliant, as the Brits say . . .brilliant move Liberals . . . we can’t defend our own country even!
Thank you Chretien . . . Thank you Trudeau’s, father and son . . . Thank you Quebec who appears to always influence the Liberals . . . you have slowly sold out our country and bankrupt it as well in just a few years!
Now even my great great great grandkids will be paying for your lack of fiscal responsibility, your lack of vision, lack of economic planning and a complete lack of understanding of how important a military is to keep a sovereign country sovereign!
The Liberals are globalists, who support the WEF and UN plans for a One World Government, so that could be why they have allowed this to happen.
The US knows that having Canada and Greenland, would be a major strategic advantage in world facing the next world war against China, Russia and Iran, along with their other misfits, like the DPRK’s little fatman!
Canada can do little, while the EU, and other NATO countries scramble to prepare for the war, predicting it to be within 3 years, Canada once again drags its feet on procurement the equipment our military will need and by doing so, will leave us even more vulnerable . . . to protect itself, the US may just move on Canada as well as Greenland!
Another great Liberal idea . . . take away all the guns from the law-abiding gun owners . . . so we can’t even protect ourselves . . . gotta love the Liberals lack of vision! The Swiss learned decades ago that they need to be armed and most households have rifles in them there! But they have low violent crimes committed using those weapons . . . once again, Quebec influenced this greal Liberal plan to disarm legal law-abiding gun owners.
So they bankrupt our military, leaving them without the equipment they need and they tool away the guns Canadians needed to help defend our country . . . thanks to the Quebec and the Liberals!
And yet Anand is telling Greenland, Canada is there for you . . . oh boy!!!!
