Rename it Trump Bridge and he’ll be happy.
Then rename it Fuck Trump Bridge the second he’s out of power.
Such unhingedness:
U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday threatened to bar the new $4.7 billion bridge …
[as reasons] Trump cited Canada’s ownership of the Gordie Howe International Bridge, …
The bridge was financed by Canada because the U.S. refused to pay for it and is set to open in the coming months.
Mexico should be paying for it obviously.
One one hand, the owners of the Ambassador bridge are a now dead billionaire’s family that wants to maintain its exclusive tolls on international traffic (and the highest traffic border crossing with Canada).
On the other hand, CBP spent no time setting up shop on the the bridge to arrest people who made a wrong turn.
I guess Detroit Windsor tunnel for the win lol.
Fuck Trump, and anything he’s asking for. Everything he thinks he’s doing to hurt Canada, just ends up hurting Americans as much, if not more.
Trump did make a good point in his post: because Canada is negotiating a deal with China, China is going to cancel all ice hockey in Canada.
There’s precedent. China made some trade deals with Nigeria and there’s hardly any ice hockey going on in Nigeria now.
Gordie Howe and his “Elbows Up”. Perfect name for the bridge.
Close the bridge. Canada doesn’t need us.
You are correct, Canada is currently not on fire and we’d like to keep it that way. Fix your shit
There is nothing to negotiate. Close the bridge.
Tbh Canada should just close it from their end.
They should also post Canadian Army patrols at crossings and perhaps start running random patrols (and definitely step up drone surveillance along the border), just in case ICEatzgruppen is feeling expeditionary.
Bruh you already built the fucking bridge just use it
Canada paid for, and built the bridge. We should just ban any vehicle with US plates from using it.
