Surely since the occupation, we need an LMBer to govern our new province, less the people turn to bloody rebellion.
Given my background in military and security matters, I'll gladly take the position. Should the next leader choose to appoint me as the Procounsel, I would gladly give them my vote and use the political power given to me as Top Poster of Legion World to encourage others to do so.

As the one who pointed out the Greenlandic menace in the first place, and as someone with higher-than-average knowledge about Greenland (in an LW-patriotic way, of course), I would volunteer to serve in some capacity, whether as procounsel, special advisor to the procounsel, or as governor-general (a ceremonial post which would not infringe upon the procounsel's authority).
I would on principle be unwilling to set foot within the one-kilometer Safety Zone around the Celene Dion Confinement Center, however, but would be comfortable sending in red-shirt subordinates to check on the prisoner from time to time, provided I have funding to surgically disable their inner ears (earplugs are not a strong enough safeguard, of course, given the captive's metahuman abilities).

Hm, I propose a duel procounselship, with Kent running the administrative and re-organization tasks, while I handle the tax-collecting and security details. I have my own private staff in place for those two functions. Kent's expertise would be vital to getting Greenland back to functioning as it should be.

What's to re-oganize? Kent, wouldn't you like to be the Cultural Attaché?
Did I forget to mention that we're also occupying Hans Island? There was some silly dispute between Canada and Denmark over that and it seemed best if we just took over.

Hans is such a Germanic sounding(ie Danish) name.
Let's rename the island Trudeau's Finger in honour of what the great Canadian Nationalist P.E.T. would show anyone who disputed the sovereignty of that mound of gravel in the arctic.

Why? Has Canada run out of obscure British royalty to name things after?

The old melt our ice caps so they'll stop trying to conquer us bit. Seen it before tons of times. I reccomend we build some particularly well placed damns so their cities are flooded. That will quiet down the riff-raff.

Would you believe TWO melting ice caps?

Hm...I believe our leaders should begin discussing this very important topic!
