Increasing the block size is a fundamental change requiring a hard fork and a chain split. It is not possible to continue on the same chain with a 2mb block. However, they could continue on the same chain with segwit which gives the rough equivalent of a 1.7mb block.

"Currently, a plan is in the works that could turn Hans Island into a shared territory that would be jointly managed by the Canadian and Danish municipalities bordering it."
