    Saudi Arabia freezes Canada trade ties, recalls envoy

    Saudi Arabia has said it is freezing all new trade and investment with Canada over its "interference" in the Gulf Kingdom's internal affairs.

    In a series of tweets, the Saudi foreign ministry said it was expelling the Canadian ambassador and recalling its own envoy in Canada.

    The move comes after Canada said it was "gravely concerned" about the arrest of several human rights activists.

    Among those arrested was Saudi-American women's rights campaigner Samar Badawi.

    Ms Badawi had been calling for an end to Saudi Arabia's male guardianship system.

    Saudi Arabia is a filthy rich monarchic nest of degenerates which has the USA by the balls. Canada is, in this instance, setting a moral example.
    Will the USA back Canada's stance on human rights ? Haw, haw........haw.

    Are you envious? How does Saudi compare to your country of origin?

    Saudi Arabia's state airline has said it is suspending flights to and from Toronto, the latest in a series of measures announced by the kingdom in its diplomatic dispute with Canada.

    "Saudi state television later reported that the Education Ministry was coming up with an "urgent plan" to move thousands of Saudi scholarship students out of Canadian schools to take classes in other countries."

    "Samar is the sister of Raif Badawi, a prominent human rights campaigner sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2014 on charges of insulting Islam. His wife and children are naturalised Canadian citizens."

    'Charges of insulting Islam' ... hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    The Sauds do more for Judeo-Christian interests than they do for Islam. Methinks they doth protest too much.
