Bis(chloromethyl) ether and chloromethyl methyl ether / Government of Canada, Environment Canada, Health and Welfare Canada.: En40-215/8E-PDF

"Based on these considerations, the federal Minister of the Environment and the federal Minister of National Health and Welfare have concluded that the substances BCME and CMME are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that constitute a danger to the environment or to the environment on which human life depends. However, if these non-threshold toxicants were to enter the Canadian environment (as a consequence of their commercial use), they may constitute a danger in Canada to human life and health. Therefore, BCME and CMME are considered to be "toxic" as defined under Paragraph 11(c) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act"--Synopsis, page v.
