Prime Minister Carney says Canada gets paid back first, then the rest is shared, and argues it’ll boost traffic. Critics call it a concession to the Trump administration, especially amid ongoing trade tensions. The bridge was ready months ago, but delays were fueled by behind-the-scenes renegotiations, partly due to Trump’s past gripes about trade fairness. He’s now praised the new deal on social media as “MUCH BETTER” for America. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
