Mounties continue to warn government officials about the threat of environmental extremism.

A 22-page document, obtained by the Globe and Mail, argues they are a more clear and present danger in Canada than religious inspired terrorists.

The report, says a criminal element is growing within groups of “environmentally ideologically motivated individuals.”

It highlights the oilsands as one of the biggest targets of radical opposition.

The RCMP has had regular meetings with energy companies and federal officials to review potential threats.
