trump took a bribe from the asshole who owns the competing bridge. I guess that trump asked for another bribe and was turned down or that trump wants to make Canada less unhappy
President Donald Trump is quietly backing off an aggressive trade posture against Canada, which some were suspicious was an under-the-table handout to major GOP donors.

President Donald Trump is quietly backing off an aggressive trade posture against Canada, which some were suspicious was an under-the-table handout to major GOP donors.
According to Politico, "Canada’s Housing and Infrastructure Department and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced Friday" that the Gordie Howe International Bridge, a new suspension bridge connecting Detroit to Windsor, Ontario, "will open July 27. A statement from the Canadian government said the agreement was made 'with the support of the United States Government.'"
The bridge has sat closed for months after its completion, because President Donald Trump refused to open it, ostensibly in protest of Canadian trade practices unfair to the United States.
