Trump Blocks Canada Bridge Opening Demanding Shared Ownership

Donald Trump is blocking the inauguration of the $4.7 billion Gordie Howe International Bridge until Canada grants the USA 50% ownership and improved trade terms.The move follows a broader pattern of the president halting major infrastructure projects, including the Gateway Tunnel and California high-speed rail, to use as political leverage.Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and several USA governors have criticized the tactics as economic coercion while legal challenges seek to restore frozen federal funding.
