Yeah the number if immigrants is very little even by our standards, but our right wing government is doing all it can to stoke fears of a Russian hybrid operation, just so that they get an excuse to shut down the border. Ironically, that's exactly what Russia wants them to do because such disregard for human rights naturally inflames internal political tensions here.
