China Is Embedded in Canada's Arctic

by Gordon G. Chang  •  January 28, 2026 at 5:00 am

  • Russia, despite all the horrible things it does, is not able to challenge Canada without its partner. Carney was quick to name China as the biggest security threat to his country during a federal election debate last April. At Davos, however, he was not willing to talk about China posing a danger to his country.

  • Carney had it right the first time: Canada's top threat is China.

  • At the top of the world, Russia and China are close partners.

  • China is now studying and surveying Arctic waters to help its submarines both navigate and evade detection.

  • Beijing has had Canada in its sights for a long time, and it has not limited its threatening activities to the seas.

  • "Canada's underfunding stems from post-Cold War complacency, reliance on the U.S., and prioritization of social programs over military defense." — Charles Burton, Sinopsis think tank, to Gatestone, January 2026.

In much of the Arctic, Canada is America's first line of defense. China is now studying and surveying Arctic waters to help its submarines both navigate and evade detection, and, within a few years, will be able to send armed submarines to the North Pole. There, they will be close to potential North American targets. Pictured: The Chinese polar icebreaking research vessel Xuelong sets off from Shanghai on November 8, 2017.

"Russia is without question a threat in the Arctic," Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said this month at the World Economic Forum in Davos. "Without question, Russia does lots of horrible things."

Russia, despite all the horrible things it does, is not able to challenge Canada without its partner. Carney was quick to name China as the biggest security threat to his country during a federal election debate last April. At Davos, however, he was not willing to talk about China posing a danger to his country.

Moreover, his foreign affairs minister was similarly reluctant. Anita Anand in Davos did not name names when reporters asked her to cite the top threat facing Canada.

Carney had it right the first time: Canada's top threat is China.

Before showing up at Davos, Canada's prime minister traveled to Beijing where he agreed to a trade deal and mentioned a "new world order."

UN Official Who Financed Murder of Teenage Girl on Gaza Board

  • Now [Sigrid Kaag] has been picked for a seat on the Gaza 'Executive Board' by the Witkoff team.

  • Kaag had been ousted from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1994 after she secretly married a top member of the PLO, Anas Al-Qaq. The same behavior that made her untrustworthy, however, qualified her for a job at the UN. There she worked for the IOM, the UN's mass migration group, and UNRWA, the UN's 'Palestinian' agency known as a front for Hamas.

  • [D]espite having been previously ousted from the ministry for her marriage to a PLO official, she became the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Netherlands. The Netherlands was struggling with Muslim mass migration and appeasement of Muslim terrorists, and Kaag had the expertise to make both of those problems worse.

  • In 2018, Kaag, who had previously discussed her relationship with Hezbollah, visited Iran and met with its leaders while wearing a 'headscarf.' Geert Wilders, the popular Dutch leader who had rallied the public to defy Islamization, blasted Kaag for "submissively" bowing "for the fascist ayatollahs of Iran" at a time when Iranian women were risking their lives to appear in public without a hijab.

  • Kaag was forced to admit that her ministry had helped pay the salaries of Rina's killers through a 'nonprofit' acting as a front group for a terrorist organization. Kaag had allowed $12 million in funding to the 'nonprofit' despite being repeatedly warned that the money was going to terrorists.

  • Kaag was forced to admit that her ministry had helped pay the salaries of Rina's killers through a 'nonprofit' acting as a front group for a terrorist organization. Kaag had allowed $12 million in funding to the 'nonprofit' despite being repeatedly warned that the money was going to terrorists.

  • However, Kaag developed ties with Witkoff, whose disastrous tenure included adopting the Biden administration's policies on Gaza. And Kaag and Witkoff apparently bonded.

  • Unfortunately, the Trump administration's foreign policy has been hijacked by the same swamp and foreign policy blob that threw billions of dollars and decades of prestige into creating a 'Palestinian terror state'. That's the cause that Kaag is still dedicated to. Now with our backing.

  • Kaag's appointment is yet more evidence that the architects of this disastrous policy are hostile to Trump, to America, and to the free world.... The move undermines American national interests, the interests of Dutch patriots and of Israel.

  • Whose interests are being served by elevating a Dutch leftist UN globalist who hates Trump?

"The entire population of Gaza is facing the risk of famine," Sigrid Kaag, the UN's coordinator for Gaza, falsely claimed, echoing Hamas propaganda. "Israel must halt its devastating strikes."

Kaag, a leftist Dutch politician and UN official, had been picked for the role in Gaza by the Biden administration. And she had all the right credentials, including the UN's World Health Organization (WHO), the World Economic Forum and leftist politics. She had cheered the BLM race riots and claimed that America was systematically racist because New Yorkers had mistaken her husband, who worked for a Muslim terrorist group, for a janitor.

Now she's been picked for a seat on the Gaza 'Executive Board' by the Witkoff team.
