Trump invades Greenland tomorrow. Danish forces shoot on American forces. American forces shoot back. Maybe a Canadian gets killed since we’re there in support of NATO. In the end America takes Greenland by force. What happens next, Bob?
There may be nobody in this country who has had a closer view of the turmoil currently overwhelming the international order than former UN Ambassador Bob Rae. His tenure overlapped with COVID, the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, October 7th, and Israel’s subsequent siege and bombardment of Gaza.
Bob Rae retired a couple months ago. Which means he’s free to speak his mind. And that’s what he does today on Canadaland.
