Dear Prime Minister Carney, Why are we actively inviting Qatar to further infiltrate Canadian values through dubious investment strategies? Qatar,  as a key financial supporter of Hamas, openly funds terrorism and allows Hamas billionaire warlords to live in luxury in Doha. In effect, Qatar, with Iran, has unleashed an unholy war in Gaza.
