Another Truth Social post, another crack in the Canada-US relationship.
US President Trump threatened to stall the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge until 'the United States is fully compensated for everything we have given'. A complete 180 from his joint statement with former Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau back in 2017 when he called for its 'expeditious completion'.
Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to David Paterson, Ontario's Representative in Washington, DC., to break down the details behind the bridge's construction, what sparked Trump's sudden interest in a potential blockade, and what options Ottawa has after another volatile Truth Social post.
