You admit it, they own you. The Prince of Saudi Arabia gave Trudeau a wake up... you don't have the muscle to push anyone around. No wonder Trudeau sent Canadians to the Saudi's to beg for forgiveness.

If their being a competitor means that they "own us", it leads one to believe that the United States of America is owned by the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China ... which, come to think of it, is the case ...
