Trump wants Greenland: Should Canada send troops to defend it?
Description
Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss how Canada should respond to Trump's threats against Greenland and potential challenges to Canadian Arctic sovereignty. They examine whether Canada should join European troop deployments to Greenland and assess the risk of similar American incursions into the Northwest Passage. They also consider whether Canada should acknowledge the geopolitical realities of dealing with the Trump administrationrather than confrontation, as well as explore the tension between defending sovereignty and protecting vital economic interests.
