Analysis Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed Thursday that Canada will not share toll revenue from the Gordie Howe International Bridge with the U.S. until Canada recovers the $6.4 billion it fronted for construction under the original 2012 agreement. The bridge is set to open July 27, 2026, and the statement clarifies Canada's stance amid U.S.-Canada negotiations over how revenue will eventually be split. After debt repayment, Canada and the U.S. are expected to share net revenues for 15 years under the deal.
