Brilliant walk across the #GordieHoweBridge with friends today. With a main span of 2,799 feet and tower heights of 722 feet it is the longest cable-stayed bridge in North America. So cool seeing my city from the other side of the #DetroitRiver, too.
Canada built the Gordie Howe Bridge with their own money, and they have the right to take all the toll fees until it's paid off. Trump tried to stop the bridge from opening for a friend who owned a different bridge down the way. Figures.
Please keep pressuring news oulets like @globalnews.ca.web.brid.gy and @cbcnewz.bsky.social and @ctvnewsottawa.bsky.social to replace their stock photos of the Republican sponsored Ambassador bridge and replace them with the #GordieHoweBridge. The new bridge in town is bigger and better!
Hey @globalnews.ca.web.brid.gy why are you still using stock photos of the Ambassador bridge? In case you haven't heard... there's a new bridge in town... and it's bigger and better than the Republic sponsored, old one. #GordieHoweBridge
Key Insight: Commercial trucks crossing the Gordie Howe pay roughly $40 less per trip than the Ambassador Bridge toll, and the new crossing is projected to save drivers hundreds of thousands of hours a year.
