Is the Gordie Howe Bridge a multi-billion dollar “boondoggle”? 💸
In this explosive breakdown, we dive into the “big diabolical global game of risk” happening at the Detroit border. While Canada builds a massive new bridge, President Trump is threatening to shut it down before it even opens.
Why is this happening?
The Leverage Play: Trump claims Canada won’t open the bridge unless the U.S. gets a piece of the action and a better trade deal.
The “Scam”: While Canada pays for the construction, critics argue they are using it to dump Chinese and German goods into the U.S., costing American jobs while we get stuck with the smog.
The Financial Disaster: The bridge is reportedly 300% over budget, years behind schedule, and Michigan won’t see a dime in tolls until Canada recoups every cent.
The “Middleman” Strategy: We look at the map of how the Canadian National Rail System is cutting right through the heart of America—from Chicago to New Orleans—to move foreign goods.
Is this “economic sabotage” against Michigan’s auto industry, or is it the only way to force fair trade for the American worker? We’re breaking down the tariffs, the falling traffic numbers, and why some say we don’t even need this bridge at all.
