I can't remember. Probably on the interweb somewhere. I think it was something like 100 Billion (or so) but not sure. Edit - did a quick search on Wikipedia. Did have info on the Trump proposal to buy Greenland, but no mention of the amount. It's possible the amount was not mentioned in the...

Though Canada needs nuclear powered subs to effectively protect Canadian Arctic sovereignty, I doubt the US will sell us any. Plus the current gov't wouldn't want the political backlash from the anti-nuke supporters.

Sad but true.

Obviously wasn't being serious bud, the ;) was to make it obvious. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: The Americans would throw a shit-fit if and try to block any serious attempt at Canada getting control of Greenland. (Not like there ever was one)

Canada's negotiators were kind of timid when they decided to split the island in half. They should've said, "You can have the whole Island! Just one small thing, all you have to do is.....join Canada!" Greenland might have gone for it.;)

Damn! No one listened to my idea of annexing Denmark. Not only would we have Greenland, but we could use their monarchy instead of Britain's. :p;)

Stupidity.

A wall? Greenland is in NA, Canada needs to annex it. What are the Danes going to do? ;);)

You're probably correct, Quebec would be against losing any bit of territory (unless they were compensated somehow).

You are correct. Ottawa-Gatineau region should be made a separate Federal Capital Territory (following the example of Australia's ACT).

The CAF (or more accurately, the Canadian gov't) was stupid to sell off most of (if not all) the off base housing in the early '70s. My family was in Moncton when this was happening and had to move out of our PMQ (that was being sold) and move into a much smaller house in the center of the...

Didn't say it would be easy. There would have to be a will on both sides, which there is not right now.

The island is whole. Just 2 political entities on it and , as I said, no reason why they can't work out some sort of political union (if they really want to).

There's actually only one Ireland, that's the island called Ireland. Anyone born one that island is Irish no matter what part they live in. The Republic of Ireland is just the republican country that covers part of the island of Ireland. People need to stop confusing political entities with...

Maybe it's time to consider making the Ottawa-Gatineau region into a National Capital Territory (or Federal Capital Territory) with the RCMP responsible for the policing. Yes, would take a referendum for the change, so not likely to happen, but wouldn't hurt Canadians to have that conversation.

Bermuda should be welcomed into Confederation as the 11the province.

Not too surprising. My nieces and nephews tend to reflect those views. Not too enamored with democracy (most don't bother to vote) and seem more open to more authoritarian type governance (leaders or parties who would get things done more directly instead of wasting so much time with argument...

Just go back to 21 yrs. old being the legal adult age (the way it was before the baby boomers demanded it be lowered to 18).

Just in case you haven't, you should also try; "Foxtrot" and "Nursery Crimes".
