The $64 Billion U.S.-Canada Bridge: A Game Changer for Trade and Travel

THE GORDIE HOWE INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE, a $6.4 billion megaproject, will soon transform the future of trade between the U.S. and Canada. This engineering marvel will connect Detroit and Windsor, providing a modern, efficient link for the 130 billion dollars worth of goods that cross the border every year. But the road to this bridge’s completion hasn’t been smooth.

For decades, the Ambassador Bridge enjoyed a monopoly over cross-border traffic, earning millions in tolls and fees. Its owner, billionaire Manuel Moroun, did everything in his power to halt the Gordie Howe Bridge. From filing lawsuits to launching expensive campaigns, Moroun fought to protect his lucrative business, arguing he had exclusive rights to the crossing.

Despite his efforts, construction of the Gordie Howe Bridge is now in its final stages, promising to end the monopoly and provide much-needed relief for truckers and daily commuters. When it opens in 2025, the bridge will feature six lanes, pedestrian paths, and state-of-the-art border inspection facilities.

This is more than just a bridge—it’s a vital economic lifeline between two of the world’s largest trading partners. Watch the full story of why this project faced so much opposition, and what its completion means for the future.
