Canada celebrates Gordie Howe bridge opening — without Michigan — amid tariff riff
Canada celebrated the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge in Windsor, marking a major infrastructure project after decades of planning. The event excluded U.S. and Michigan representatives due to ongoing trade tensions, including President Donald Trump's 50% tariffs on Canadian goods. The bridge is set to open for traffic on Monday, introducing competition to the privately owned Ambassador Bridge.
