Canada-US Bridge Pact Omits Canada’s Debt Costs, Document Shows

The agreement makes no mention of Canada’s interest expenses or debt payments related to the bridge, contradicting earlier public remarks from Prime Minister Mark Carney.

Canada and the US agreed to split the profit from a new bridge between Ontario and Michigan for 15 years — with no provision to cover Canada’s debt-service costs on the project, according to a copy of the pact seen by Bloomberg News.

The agreement in principle covering the Gordie Howe International Bridge appears to contradict earlier public remarks from Prime Minister Mark Carney. And it shows what Canada conceded to get the President Donald Trump’s administration to stop blocking the 1.5-mile bridge over the Detroit River.


Carney lies always.
