We could start with danish, french and british troops establishing bases in Canada with nordic troops in Greenland. These garrisons could be primarily used for training Ukrainians and Taiwanese defenders.

We could build more ice breakers to protect our North West Passage and infrastructure to support the locals in the Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Greenland with increased access to foods, medicine and opportunities.

As we need to secure democracy, local sovereignty and minerals from the fascist Washington DC’s encroachment on our countries. They have Alaska already, there’s no need for more entitlement.

We must stand together in the face of imperial Russia and USA.

We should eject the USA from NATO

I think this would be a lot harder than I'd be to create a second Nato, that is just everyone minus the US - we could sell it as a project to so we can fend for ourselves if the US starts a war with China.

I wouldn't want Erdogan's Turkey in there either. Free Kurdistan.

And give up a commanding position on the Black Sea?

Ideally we'd still keep NATO going in some sort of capacity and continue to pretend to be friends with the US and Turkey, but with friends like that who needs enemies.
