Episode Details

A brand-new bridge linking Detroit and Canada is fully built and ready — but it’s being blocked by political maneuvering. U.S. Rep. Mike Levin blames former President Trump, accusing him of stalling the Gordie Howe International Bridge to benefit the privately owned Ambassador Bridge, which is run by a major Trump donor. Canada paid for the entire project, and the U.S. already owns half for free — yet the bridge remains closed. Canadian officials confirm the bridge’s critical importance and say they’ve been in direct talks with U.S. leaders, including the prime minister. Other U.S. politicians, including Senate hopefuls and former Secretary Pete Buttigieg, are demanding it open — calling it a glaring example of politics over progress. The call to reopen this vital border link is growing louder, as frustration mounts on both sides of the border.
