Gordie Howe Bridge
Sorry, not sorry, we should just open it!
A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.
Donald Trump won’t let it open.
Here is why.
The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.
Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.
He called Trump.
Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.
Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.
Canada paid for the entire bridge.
Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.
This is corruption in plain sight.
A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.
Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.
COMMENTS
In addition, Canada honorably employed 50% American workers as well as 50% Canadian. The plan was to share revenue once the cost of building it is recovered. Trump wants all of it... ugh
And he is doing it again and again.

It's Always About Money
I remember when we came to Canada and lived in Baie Comeau and only got French TV stations, Hockey Night in Canada was a highlight of the week!
The end of Hockey Night in Canada is more than just the end of a television show.
Hockey Night in Canada was something uniquely Canadian.
Now it is gone.
A piece of our cultural tapestry now in the dustbin of history.
Hockey Night in Canada will no longer air on CBC after the current season, ending a tradition that has been on Canadian TV since 1952. Sportsnet and CBC announced the end of their 12-year NHL partnership. 📺 🇨🇦
Hockey Night in Canada on CBC is the eighth longest running TV show in THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD at 72 seasons.
Add in radio, and it's been a Saturday night fixture for families on CBC for 90 years.
There has never been a Canadian cultural institution like it, and there never will be again.
BEHIND A PAYWALL!
