Canada’s awkward tariff summer: Gordie Howe Bridge opens for traffic a week after Michigan and White House officials got uninvited
The Gordie Howe International Bridge opened in Windsor, Ontario, as a new trade route between Canada and the U.S., but U.S. and Michigan officials were excluded from the ceremony following President Donald Trump's 50% tariff announcement on Canadian goods. The bridge, costing $6.4 billion, will alleviate traffic and boost trade, with Canada sharing toll revenue with the U.S. for 15 years.
