The Arctic

I would not be surprised if Canada positions a AOP's at Nuuk and opens a small Naval Station there. Seems to be a lot of dock space. Rotate the ship or the crew and have them patrol out of their during the winter, at least for the time being to this issue is resolved.

And concurrently 'twin' Iqaluit with Nuuk to help them develop the town, which sounds like something they want to do ....


Nuuk’s progress ‘aspirational’ to Iqaluit
Greenland capital has seen commercial, residential building boom; airport, school improvements underway

With a new seasonal air link to Nuuk, Greenland, travellers from Iqaluit will find a city that in some ways is similar but bigger, faster-growing and with services not seen in the Nunavut capital.

They will land in a fly-in city with a similar climate and array of colourful buildings, owing to a discontinued tradition of colour-coding structures based on their function.

However, they will also discover Nuuk as a capital city that has grown much vaster and taller than Iqaluit and includes businesses and amenities Iqaluit lacks.
