I would argue that immigrants aren’t a threat to anyone (not even mediocre white men). Unless, of course, they happen to be billionaires.

Carney tells us that among the criteria for a project being designated in the national interest, the major projects office considers whether the project “contributes to Canadas clean growth and climate goals.” And a BITUMEN PIPELINE PASSED THIS TEST? Then the test is bullshit.
