Trump claims he secured a “much better deal” for America, while political tensions rise over a controversial donation linked to the rival Ambassador Bridge. Despite last-minute drama and MP outrage, both Canadian and U.S. officials remain confident the bridge will deliver major economic gains for years to come.
