White House makes more threats over a bridge Canada paid for
About this episode
Prime Minister Mark Carney said he spoke to U.S. President Donald Trump about a bridge between Windsor, Ont., and Detroit early Tuesday, and explained it was paid for in full by Canada and that the Americans already have an ownership stake. But later on Tuesday, the White House still called the arrangement 'unacceptable' and said Trump had the right to amend a permit that could stop the bridge from opening. Democratic Rep. Shri Thanedar, who represents the district where the bridge lands in Detroit, responds. Plus, Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin explains why her government scrapped the EV mandate in favour of what she calls an 'all-encompassing,' 'more durable' and 'pragmatic' policy.
