Call is here: https://github.com/imageio/imageio/blob/master/imageio/config/plugins.py#L100

I see a few issues with the same call to import_module. I'm unsure what a fix is, and in this case this is in another library (imageio), but it does seem to have some active development.

The import needs to run in the executor

The link to the old issue is helpful. @michaeldavie seems like the best place to fix this is in env_canada lib. Thoughts?
