Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand will open Canada’s new consulate in Greenland's capital this week, as both allies seek to deepen ties amid turbulent relations with the U.S.

The pledge to open the diplomatic office — along with another consulate in Anchorage, Alaska — was initially laid out in the federal government’s Arctic foreign policy, unveiled late last year. Greenland’s government encouraged the move in its own policy document in early 2024, and hopes to reciprocate with an office in Ottawa.
