Immigration officers have faaaar too much power. Visa denials are becoming routine stories these days.
Who should have the power to deny visas then?
Me.
You're too softhearted.  Only I can be relied upon to dispense visas, justice and honours.

I'd like a QC please.  :)

I would say that he's not a spy given the information presented.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Yeah, but we've seen a lot of news stories linked or posted that mis-stated or left out a lot of information, especially recently.

If he was a real spy he'd have a Canadian passport, no problem.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

That's why I specified "given the information presented".

Yeah, I was just agreeing with you and amplifying the point a bit.

You should just have agreed with him, and perhaps emphasized his point further.

The term "spy" is so vague as to become irrelevant in this context.

In my opinion,

Should he be barred entry for having worked in military intelligence? Not unless he is a present security risk which from the sound of the article doesn't seem to be the case.

Should he be barred entry for being a filthy fucking slav? Sure.

I'm not a huge fan of Canadians to begin with.

But I do know this: There is not one race on this planet that can benefit from being polluted by Slavs. Even Danes.

Indeed.  BB is a Slav.

The key to making a Slav into a person is to raise them into Western culture, rather than their filthy native beliefs.  Thus, BB > Martinus.

You may get a dog to act like a wolf by raising it in a wolfpack, but at the end of the day it's still just a fucking mutt, and its get will likely be rabid and dangerous to people.

I like BB well enough, but dressing him up in people clothes doesn't make him any less of a Slav and it's cruel to pretend otherwise.

He upholds the law.

Besides, it's not like the Slavs are inferior to Scandinavians.
