The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday edition that the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge between Windsor and Detroit has been postponed indefinitely at the request of the Trump administration. A quadruple bylined item led by Adrian Morrow says that this delay came just before the scheduled ribbon-cutting. The U.S. is seeking to negotiate a deal to assist the Moroun family, current owners of the Ambassador Bridge, in managing potential losses from competition with the new bridge. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump threatened to block the bridge's opening after Matthew Moroun, chairman of the Ambassador Bridge, donated $1-million (U.S.) to a pro-Trump campaign group and reportedly met with Howard Lutnick. Prime Minister Mark Carney said the government had agreed to delay the opening of the bridge "at the request of the United States" to "resolve outstanding issues." He would not say what the issues were. Mr. Carney said the delay was unrelated to broader negotiations with the U.S. over Mr. Trump's trade war and the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement. He said he had not spoken with the President about the bridge. "There's not great drama here." Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer wants the bridge opened.
