🇨🇦 Windsor mayor says better to keep Gordie Howe Bridge closed than to make a bad deal

Canada fully financed a bridge, jointly owns it with Michigan, built the thing, and now gets told to wait at the gate like a tenant asking permission. That is the absurdity here, and even Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens seems to grasp it. As reported, Ottawa has gone silent, Carney announced an opening then backed off, and the bridge sits there closed while Washington fishes for concessions.

This is what sovereignty erosion looks like in real life. Not a theory, not a panel discussion, not another glossy Canada-US partnership speech. A fully financed Canadian project gets turned into leverage, and our federal class responds with delay, caution, and managerial mush. Dilkens is right on one point: do not go on bent knee. If the current arrangement lets a completed trade corridor be frozen by foreign pressure and private lobbying games, then the real scandal is how weak and naive Canada’s ruling class has become after years of globalist dependency and Trudeau-era submission.
