I don't think the Flames view it as a partnership.

They don't want to open up the books and show the economics of the Arena project or the team. A partner would do that

A partner wouldn't threaten to leave when things aren't going their way trying to impact an election.

The Flames behaviour thus far is one of a predator. They want to maximize their earnings using whatever levers they have. This is what they should be doing and I don't begrudge them for it at all. However it certainly isn't a partnership.
