The simple answer is that Germany occupied Norway, and your enemy's enemy is your friend.

For the long answer, we need to look back to WWI. Norway was neutral and was supplying Germany with canned fish. The British were fed up with this, and presented Norway with an ultimatum; Stop feeding Germany, or we stop supplying you with coal. Norway now had to choose sides, and this sparked a collaboration where a large portion of the Norwegian commercial fleet was put at Britain's disposal. However, Norway still claimed to be neutral.

When WWII started, Norway once again declared it's neutrality, but the government had the view that if war became inevitable they had to side with Britain.
