Saudi Arabia is throwing a hissy fit and is expecting Canada to apologize. There are no indications that Canada will.

Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
Pick your enemies carefully.
Yeah but, they've done more than just throw a hissy, CS. They will no longer send citizens to Canadian hospitals and will withdraw resident physicians from Canadian hospitals. They're suspending flights by their national carrier. They recalled the Saudi ambassador to Ottawa and froze all new trade and investment deals with your nation.
Your Prime Minister...….Justin Trudeau says “Canadians have always expected our government to speak strongly, firmly, clearly and politely about the need to respect human rights at home and around the world. We will continue to do that.”

Many Canadians calling for a US boycott. Not for human rights mind you...but because they hate Trump. And trust me when I tell you, I do much business with Canada.....they hate Donald Trump more than they hate Trudeau.
Maybe....just maybe.....they're acting like a bunch of high nosed elites......perhaps all this crusty behavior and language ain't doing Canada well. It works for Trump, Trump can be bellicose, snarl, he can tell it like it needs to be told.....but you Canadians come off as high handed and arrogant. And it's started to trim your economy.....now...….there's a good northern neighbor, let's tighten some bolts up there. What say you?
