Canada paid for it!

The Gordie Howe Internal Bridge is being paid for by Canada. Former Governor Snyder and repubs would not agree to pay our share so Canada went ahead and paid for it. Matthew Moroun who owns the Ambassador Bridge and has given to trump big time does not want the new bridge to open.

have to fork over 50% of the cost and they can't reduce the price.
