Fishery surveys, weather and wave data, and wildlife counts to support sustainable hunts are among the efforts at risk if the Trump administration's proposed cuts go through, Alaska researchers say. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

"Melting glaciers will harm us all. Yet still we watch, unmoved. The degradation of the Arctic tundra has triggered a terrible chain reaction that can only lead to greater mayhem." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Iceland Prime Minister KristrĂşn FrostadĂłttir on Iceland joining the European Union "I don't want drive our EU accession talks based on fear" "I think it's more important to look at EU membership as a broad spectrum of culture, economy, finances" "Where do we belong? Do most of our trade?"

The 🇸🇪Swedish government has requested the Parliament for approval of the sale of up to 4 GlobalEye to 🇩🇰Denmark. It is likely the result of a combination of the existing Danish NATO capability target for JISR & signal intelligence capability and demand for surveillance in the North Atlantic.

🇩🇰❗ Denmark could deploy 100 armed soldiers to Greenland and introduce mandatory military service on the island to ensure the kingdom’s security. This proposal was made on April 17 by Alex Arendtsen, a representative of the Danish People’s Party on defense issues. militarnyi.com/en/news/denm...

I believe that there is room at the table for representation by every 🇨🇦 party, whether we like them or not. What I would LOVE to see one day is a Liberal majority with an NDP opposition. I would also like to see more Indigenous and First Nations representation across Canada. It’s long overdue.

ATTENTION PLEASE:

I have not seen any reporting done on this. Apparently no media outlets were allowed to attend the transfer of the soldiers back from Lithuania. Thankful to Lithuania for honouring these men more than their own commander im chief. Not even surprised anymore by his disgusting behaviour.

Iceland and Norway are deeply integrated into the EU’s internal market through the European Economic Area and the Schengen zone, yet formally outside the Union. Both have a history of EU candidacy. Both face a hostile Russia and an increasingly hostile US.
