“Canada’s a fairly easy whipping boy, much more so than France, the U.K. or U.S., which have in the past also made some comments on human rights.” ~ David Chatterson, who was named Canadian ambassador to Saudi Arabia
Really? Seems like the Banksters have been ass raping those other nations for centuries, Canada is just the baby.

This guy is ruining Canada's reputation.
He is just confirming we are spineless. That is quite a bit different than spreading you own ass so the rape will be easier.

The Liberals are sounding very Islamophobic.
PRETZELS. Come and get your Pretzels! Conservatives are going to micro-target each ethnic group of new canadians. Guess what? Many adherants to Islam know who the Saudis are and how hard it is to live in a corrupt region of the world. That is why they moved to Canada over the last 100 years. Trudeau is anti-corrupt and pro-human rights. Canadians like that.

But the saudis just told the libs to mind their own bloody business and butt out of the business of rolls royce owners, if we rattle your chain speak...otherwise shut up.
Would mean something if the physical being behind the mouth had a spine but it appears the deep left field duo heeded, swapping demand for immediate release during their last 'attack' for we are extremely concerned about the arrest of women's rights activists. Gender specifics freelands not mine.

Inflammitory reference to saudi allies after saudi generousity in offering to buy our war toys is not conducive to neighbourly relations, not only that trump is easily offended. All canucks know Yemen is not on freelands' twitter feed.

Canadian Export Agency Downgrades Its Assessment of Saudi Arabia

(Bloomberg) -- Canada’s export financing agency is raising a red flag on doing business with Saudi Arabia in the wake of a feud between Riyadh and the Trudeau government.
Export Development Canada “is currently off cover on all products in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” the agency said on its website’s Saudi country profile Thursday night. “EDC encourages exporters to exercise caution in shipping to Saudi Arabia.” It said it would continue to monitor the situation and advise customers accordingly.
A diplomatic feud between the two countries erupted last month after a tweet from Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland criticized the arrest in Riyadh of Saudi women’s rights activist Samar Badawi. In response, Saudi Arabia lambasted Canada for interfering in its domestic affairs, expelling the Canadian ambassador to Riyadh and ordering a freeze on new investment.
Before the incident, EDC had rated Saudi Arabia as open for business with a low risk of political interference. It has now put that assessment under review. At the time of Freeland’s tweet, EDC had exposure of about C$2 billion ($1.6 billion) to Saudi Arabia, and about 250 customers operating in the kingdom.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government plans to extend an olive branch to Riyadh, hoping to arrange talks between Freeland and her Saudi counterpart in New York next week during the United Nations General Assembly, according to a Canadian official who spoke to Bloomberg News on condition of anonymity.

I agree. Hopefully nobody has sold them Canadian heavy oil upgrader tech.

With Chinamen owning Husky, it's probably already a done deal.
