Humans have become the most fucked up species ever.
I remember a time when a lot of US backpackers would sew Canadian flags onto their packs so they could travel Europe in relative safety.
Saskatchewan’s main mined fertilizer is potash which is not petroleum-based.
American representatives have been going around knocking on one door after another in recent days to ask if they would like to have a visit from the vice president’s wife. Everywhere the answer was the same: “No, otherwise thank you,” says Steinmetz.
ahahaha! Greenlanders were far more polite than I would have been.
Not according to what is written in the agreement.
Maybe you haven’t read it all yet, like the part where it says the agreement is for NATO-member nations’ armed forces are allowed to use the land and buildings as they see fit. Nowhere does it state that politicians or just regular Americans can visit at will.

This is not an option, based on the agreement made between Denmark and USA in 1951.
Yes it is. In reading the 1951 agreement it is specifically aimed at the following …
armed forces of the parties to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization may make use of facilities in Greenland in defense of Greenland and the rest of the North Atlantic Treaty area Source
DJ Vance, Usha Vance, the vice president’s wife, White House National Security Adviser Mike Waltz and Energy Secretary Chris Wright will visit, but none of them are current military members.
It would seem they can be refused according to your reference point.

I think most nations have similar lapses. I attended university in my late 40’s and none of my younger classmates had ever heard of the October crisis that led to “Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau (to invoke) the War Measures Act for the first time in Canadian history during peacetime.”
There is a before & after google earth link in the article that shows different.
Canadians can be refused entry to America based on the border guards not believing what we say about anything.
Every nation/group of nations (ie: the EU) has border guards who can refuse non-citzens entry, so ofc they can.
But rn it’s a game of chess. Is Greenland willing to pay the cost of refusal, because knowing who and what Trump is means the cost could be huge.
Greenland can refuse them entry.
Thanks for Waterfox. Looks awesome. :)
A neutered fascist is still a fascist.
Strip search right on the apron. They don’t even get to enter the terminal.
The same argument has been made for hundreds of years, often by the British.
Fuck colonialism, and fuck Britain, because that’s where shit like that is derived from.
I honestly can’t wait to see next week’s polls. Watching PP sink to the bottom of the barrel brings such joy.
That’s fair, except I didn’t say Americans were scum buckets. I said America was.
Since Reagan it has rolled downhill slow enough that many didn’t notice they were on a trip to hell. Now the world knows.
Their answer would be, “I’m just doing my job”. And I get it, but you gotta draw the line somewhere, right? Like before the ovens start up?
Nope. Just asking who peed in your cornflakes today.
Just watched Alone Australia (filmed in Tasmania) and the only containers that 2 of the contestants found so far were glass.
I don’t ever remember seeing any glass being found on America’s Alone series.
