At this year’s World Economic Forum in Davos, a central question lies among the range of likely topics: What will U.S. President Donald Trump do next? https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/20/world/politics/global-leaders-davos-messy-world/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #davos #environment #greenland #middleeast #israel #gaza #ukraine #russia #russiaukrainewar #us #donaldtrump #trade #tariffs #republicans #venezuela #nato #un #iran #china

Trump is now implying that Canada is dependent on the USA acquiring Greenland in order for it to gain “protection” under the “golden dome”.

It is time for Canada to end its participation in the Golden Dome and NORAD until the USA once again becomes a trustworthy global nation.

We cannot be dragged into complicity with international crimes.

It is time for Canadians to have a very very deep discussion about our military, our own expectations, and our neighbour. The days of “the longest unguarded border” are gone.

We need to consider a much more European stance. A much more Ukrainian stance.

Trump's Truth

Donald J. Trump: "We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, ...

We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs, or any other forms of remuneration. Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back — World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it. They currently have two dogsleds as protection, one added recently. Only the United States of America, under PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, can play in this game, and very successfully, at that! Nobody will touch this sacred piece of Land, especially since the National Security of the United States, and the World at large, is at stake. On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable. Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken so that this potentially perilous situation end quickly, and without question. Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland. The United States has been trying to do this transaction for over 150 years. Many Presidents have tried, and for good reason, but Denmark has always refused. Now, because of The Golden Dome, and Modern Day Weapons Systems, both Offensive and Defensive, the need to ACQUIRE is especially important. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars are currently being spent on Security Programs having to do with “The Dome,” including for the possible protection of Canada, and this very brilliant, but highly complex system can only work at its maximum potential and efficiency, because of angles, metes, and bounds, if this Land is included in it. The United States of America is immediately open to negotiation with Denmark and/or any of these Countries that have put so much at risk, despite all that we have done for them, including maximum protection, over so many decades. Thank you for your attention to this matter!DONALD J. TRUMPPRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Putin’s willingness to be pushed around has its limits, and it is entirely possible that Donald Trump's administration will prove pushy enough to find out what those limits are. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/16/world/putins-silence-on-venezuela/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #vladimirputin #nicolasmaduro #venezuela #russia #us #donaldtrump #russiaukrainewar #defense

A bad day for Russia is a good day for the rest of the free world!

"Starmer added that after the ceasefire, “The UK and France will establish “military hubs” across Ukraine And build protected facilities for weapons and military equipment to support Ukraine’s defensive needs.”

Still waiting to hear what Canada's contribution will be. I would speculate it may be to increase focus and assets in the Baltics and re-establish a permanent base somewhere in Western Europe for a rapid reaction type force.

With financial, materiel, and economic support going to Ukraine itself.
