Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says a new bridge built in Canada across the Detroit River—an infrastructure link between Canada and the U.S.—will open by the end of the week. Multiple outlets report Carney made the comments in response to prior remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump, who had threatened to block the bridge. The reporting characterizes the bridge as a Canada-built project connecting Michigan in the United States with Canada. Carney describes the opening as “positive news” and frames it both as a symbol of bilateral cooperation and as a concrete outcome for cross-border infrastructure. The sources agree on the key points: the bridge is intended to carry traffic across the Detroit River, it is expected to open soon, and Carney links the schedule to the earlier U.S. comments suggesting possible obstruction. Across outlets, no additional details about the specific blocking threat or any resolution process are provided beyond Carney’s statement about the opening timeline.
