Released Gordie Howe bridge agreement contradicts Carney's debt-repayment assurances

The Gordie Howe bridge agreement, released July 22 under Conservative pressure, splits net revenues with the U.S. after operating costs but before debt-servicing — meaning toll revenue is shared before the $6.4-billion bridge debt is repaid. That contradicts Carney's July 16 statement that Canada would not share tolls until the debt was cleared. Conservative MP Shuvaloy Majumdar said Carney "misled Canadians." The PMO did not respond.
