“Via Greenland” makes no sense. The trouble with Canada-Europe trade is that Canada unfortunately lacks a good port on its east coast (certainly nothing comparable to Vancouver in the west). For the foreseeable future, if the trade dispute with the US drags on, Canada’s best bet is to expand its trade with Asia.
Given current politics, maybe. It’s a big expenditure that could go bankrupt if the current political insanity gets shut down. I think if the government put some guarantees of future support in case that happens it would instantly be a worth while project. Which probably depends on selling it as a national security and resilience issue.

Is Halifax not a good port?
Good location, limited infrastructure. They’d need to build a full commercial cargo port, and probably expand the oil/gas facility a lot.
Sounds like a good investment imo
