U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to block the opening of a new Canadian-built bridge linking the U.S. and Canada unless the U.S. is "fully compensated".
Trump accused Canada of having treated the United States unfairly for decades in a social media post on Monday, demanding at least half of the bridge's ownership.
The Gordie Howe International Bridge spans over the Detroit River, linking Michigan and Ontario. Construction of the bridge began in 2018, with the crossing originally scheduled to open this September. Upon completion, it is expected to ease traffic on the nearby Ambassador Bridge and become the largest land port of entry on the U.S.-Canada border.
According to some media reports, Canada fully funded the bridge's preliminary construction costs after the United States refused to bear the related expenses.
