Follow the meridians. Everything from the Easternmost tip of Labrador to the Yukon, Alaska border to the North Pole is undeniably Canada. Some that is outside that is ours too.

As Trump turned his gaze toward the north, Greenland’s prime minister, Múte Egede, said last week, “It is now time to take the next step for our country … to remove the obstacles to cooperation — which we can describe as the shackles of the colonial era — and move on,” suggesting he might push for an independence referendum in an upcoming parliamentary election.

The prime minister added in a news conference in Copenhagen on Monday that he wanted to work more closely with the United States on defense and mining exploration and was open to conversations with the Trump administration. He emphasized that “it is … Greenland that will decide what agreement we should come to.”

“But close partners? Maybe,” he said.
