Hi Cornel, Thanks for your kind review of our book - On Thin Ice - which recently appeared on Goanet. We appreciate your kind words on our endeavor.
Thanks too for reading my post on the above story and taking the trouble to make some thoughtful comments. You are correct that Greenland in a Danish protectorate. Greenland (mostly covered with ice, unlike Iceland), is not considered a third world country in the classical sense. And generally neither Denmark nor Greenland factor in the North - South dialogue. It would appear that you otherwise agreed with the major points I made to the Danish Editor. I have heard many who complimented the Canadian and American people / communities and newspapers for using good judgement in this whole saga. I would certainly like to hear your thoughts from across the pond. Kind Regards, GL ---- cornel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: 2) Denmark is a colonial power.
