Gordie Howe Bridge Opening Delayed Amid U.S.-Canada Negotiations
The Gordie Howe International Bridge, a $6.4 billion link meant to ease roughly $100 billion in annual cross-border trade (about $300 million a day), has been postponed as the U.S. and Canada negotiate differences and address so-called technical issues. Officials point to tensions over ownership and funding, with President Trump pushing back on terms, a delay that also highlights the congestion created by the aging Ambassador Bridge and could cost American taxpayers millions per week while on hold.
