      Media needs to stop reporting on his distractions and report on why he isn’t indicted and jailed yet for what is in the Epstein files.

      We’re already giving them half once we recoup the investment using the tolls. Tolls will be 90/10 until we recoup the cost of the bridge we entirely paid for (using US steel and us/Canadian union jobs) then will go to 50/50. Just making noise for his buddies who own the Ambassador bridge.

      Canada please tell this senile idiot to go f himself.

      Hell, just block the bridge. An expensive option, but do you really need anything from the US at this point.

      He’s a scumbag. That’s the busiest international crossing in the world, those border states see the most benefit from the crossing.

      Spoiler Alert: Trump himself approved this project in 2017.

      From wikipedia (and links to some articles): In a joint statement released after a meeting between newly elected U.S. president [Donald Trump](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump) and Canadian prime minister [Justin Trudeau](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Trudeau) on February 13, 2017, the two governments reiterated the support of the “expeditious completion” of the project.[^([44])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordie_Howe_International_Bridge#cite_note-44) It was listed as a priority infrastructure project by the Donald Trump administration.

      “Nice new bridge you built there. I think I’ll take it”

      The grift never ends with this guy. Take take take is all he thinks about.

      The entire process of it getting funded and built should be a national embarrassment as is. Our good-natured neighbors paying for vital infrastructure that benefits us more than them cause we’re broke-ass bitches. Then president baby dick shows up to draw attention to what absolute scumbags we are as a people.

      I’d give him full ownership and make the US pay. Since Trump doesn’t care about deficits, just wants a golden “Trump Bridge”.

      Canada should sue Trump for $150,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

      International companies also take note.

      When you give in and spend billions moving manufacturing to the US he’ll demand half ownership as it’s on US land …

      In honor of Gordie, I think he should personally have to brawl all of Canada for it.

    28. Rare_Today4338 on

      Trump approved it almost 10 years ago. Check

      USA does have ownership through Michigan. Check

      Canada fully funded the bridge. Check.

      USA continuing to tarnish their reputation. Check.

      Just another Tuesday.

      Three years. Three damned years of this nonsense remain. Hopefully less, hopefully not more.

      This is an agreement Canada already made. Once again Trump is backing out of a contract and using his bully position to demand a cut. He is straight up a mafia boss at this point.
