Text of new Gordie Howe bridge deal seems to contradict Carney
✦AI Summary
A newly released agreement for the Gordie Howe bridge suggests Canada will share net revenue with a U.S. economic fund before debt repayment, contradicting previous statements by Prime Minister Mark Carney. Opposition leaders are criticizing the government for the apparent discrepancy in the deal's terms.
The deal — posted online late Tuesday night and described as a "proposed agreement in principle" — says that for the first 15 years, Canada will split half of the bridge's net revenue with an economic development fund "established and solely controlled" by the U.S. government.
