Canada’s awkward tariff summer: Gordie Howe Bridge opens for traffic a week after Michigan and White House officials got uninvited

The Gordie Howe Bridge, named after the Canadian hockey icon who played for the Detroit Red Wings, has officially opened for traffic between Canada and the U.S. This opening occurred one week after Michigan and White House officials were uninvited from the celebration. The event took place amidst a tariff battle, as Trump imposed 50% tariffs on Canadian goods and stated that the terms had changed, marking a tense period for the two neighboring nations.
