    Suspicious old me, I have to wonder, did Prime Minister Mark Carney know a head of time that if he sent any Military personnel to Greenland, Trump would impose another 25 percent tariff on Canada, like Trump is threatened to do with the four other countries that did? Canada did not send any soldiers to Greenland as a sign of solidarity, as I thought he would have. I wonder why?

      I don’t think Trump’s tariffs on his country’s imports are as effective a threat as Trump thinks they are.

      Is it a threat to another country if you move your military further away from your border with them?
