Yes, technically ~90% of the population is inuit, but racial mixing has been going on for so long the populated areas are much more european in appearance.

Like alaska, native tribes do exist, but have been marginalized.

But there are only about 60k people in the whole country, so its splitting hairs.

My guess he has greenland confused with iceland. He is an idiot so its likely.
