Blackwater USA founder Erik Prince revealed in a recent interview on the Sean Spicer Show that President-elect Donald Trump’s first administration was closer to securing a groundbreaking agreement with Denmark to take control of Greenland than previously known. Prince’s comments come as Trump ramps up his calls to acquire the Arctic landmass, highlighting its strategic military and economic advantages.

One of the unexpected observations about those charlatans who have visited woke nonsense and leftist economic carnage upon us, is that these folks have no sense of humour.
This truism has recently manifested from a playful jab by the incoming president of the United States.
Among the most senior officials in Ottawa, there is a document circulating that outlines specific details about how Canada could retaliate against Donald Trump’s tariff threat.
The list includes hundreds of American-made goods that Canada is considering hitting with retaliatory tariffs, according to a senior Canadian government source.
American steel products, ceramics including toilets and sinks, glassware, flowers and different types of plastics are all included as possible targets for retaliatory tariffs.
Threaten to exile Justin to America that’ll bring the USA to its knees!
Let’s call it the Crowder Amendment.
Steven Crowder, the conservative talk show host, is the son of an American father and a French-Canadian mother, from Quebec. Born in the U.S., Crowder’s mother returned to the Montreal area with Steve and attempted to enroll him in an English language publicly funded school. He was rejected because, you see, Steve does not have the right blood lines. Neither his father nor his mother attended an English language school in Canada and he was therefore denied an eligibility certificate. You can read more about what Crowder went through here.
So it turns out Donald Trump doesn’t really want to annex Canada. Seriously. Anyone who watched his news conference Tuesday, and not just the short clip shared on social media, should come away assured, as much as one can be with Trump anyway, that his comments about this country becoming the 51st state really are little more than trolling. Certainly, the U.S. president-elect repeatedly musing about absorbing Canada has never been funny, and the words themselves undermine Canadian sovereignty, but nothing Trump said Tuesday was much different than what he’s been saying for weeks.
I would consider a merger with the USA.
The TDS Patriotism on display by the same pundits who supported Trudeau’s disastrous reign shows what laughable frauds they are.
(The Center Square) – As Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his plan to resign on Monday, questions remain about his administration’s border security policies and increased terrorism threats in Canada that partially contributed to the demands for his resignation.
At a news conference on Monday, Trudeau said he planned to resign after his party picked a replacement. Critics argue it was an attempt to avoid a vote of no confidence when parliament reconvenes on Jan. 27, which would prompt a call for a new election.
All clear now? Whatever the end game may be, this country is under attack. By our neighbours.
The basic assumption of Canadian history, that we would always have a stable, democratic ally to our south, is over. They are not stable, not likely to remain democratic for much…— Andrew Coyne (@acoyne) January 7, 2025
Coyne gets ripped a new one.
Trudeau says ‘not a snowball’s chance in hell’ Canada joins U.S. … No one listens to you Junior.

As President Donald Trump prepares to enter into his second term, it is important to reacquaint ourselves with that media affliction known as Trump Derangement Syndrome. One of its classic symptoms is the urge to blame everything on Trump, This symptom was on clear display as the legacy media reported on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decision to step down from his post.
President-elect Trump said Tuesday he was not considering using military force to make Canada part of the United States after repeatedly musing about the idea of the country becoming the 51st state.
Instead, Trump said he intended to use “economic force” against the neighbor to the north.
“Because Canada and the United States, that would really be something. You get rid of that artificially drawn line, and you take a look at what that looks like, and it would also be much better for national security,” Trump said.
Has to be better than Canada under the Liberal-NDP party.
In the past four years, nearly 1,600 people have been prosecuted in connection with the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Some were accused of felonies like assault or seditious conspiracy and are still in prison. But hundreds charged with lesser crimes have wrapped up their cases and returned to their lives.
Jan. 6 was a turning point for everyone involved. In breaching the Capitol, a mob of Trump loyalists caused millions of dollars in damage, injured more than 140 police officers and, for the first time in American history, chased lawmakers away from their duty to certify a presidential election.
First, President-elect Donald Trump tweaked Canada’s far-left Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about becoming governor of the 51st state of the United States of America. Then he said that the Panama Canal should once again come under American control. Make that the 52nd state. And now, are you ready for a 53rd state? Last month, Trump renewed a call he made during his first term: that the United States should buy Greenland from Denmark. Could the man possibly be serious?
When Syrian opposition groups went on the attack in late November, ultimately toppling the brutal regime of Syrian strongman Bashar Al-Assad, an iconic US Air Force warplane made a brief appearance over the fast-moving front line.
At least one Fairchild A-10 Thunderbolt II – the Cold War tank-killer also known as the Warthog, or alternatively just the Hog – was spotted flying low over US-backed fighters in eastern Syria. That A-10 didn’t actually fire its weapons in anger, however. Indeed, the Warthog’s desert cameo belies the type’s primary mission in the Middle East in the last five years of its five-decade service.
The message from President Biden’s national security adviser was startling.
Chinese hackers had gained the ability to shut down dozens of U.S. ports, power grids and other infrastructure targets at will, Jake Sullivan told telecommunications and technology executives at a secret meeting at the White House in the fall of 2023, according to people familiar with it. The attack could threaten lives, and the government needed the companies’ help to root out the intruders.
There’s a thin line between being helpful and being unhelpful.
When it comes to reporting on terrorist attacks, the press often chooses to be unhelpful, believing it is doing the exact opposite.
In the early hours of January 1, a driver sped his truck down crowded Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 New Year’s revelers and injuring nearly three times as many. The driver was later brought down by a barrage of bullets after a brief gunfight with law enforcement officials.
From the slopes of Whistler, Antony Vo is beginning to explain how he ended up in Canada, when he’s swiftly interrupted by a ski patrol.
“Can I call you back? My binding is loose,” he tells a Star reporter over the phone.
Probably the only time you’ll see the Star upset about a refugee to Canada.
