"A customer eccentric experience" for a border crossing? That' a good one.
Yeah how about emphasising security?
can't open soon enough.......hopefully the toll is reasonable.
Yes. Soon as it opens those tolls can start the 145 years it will take to pay Canadians back.
@@dcb113 Canada needs to impose some tariffs as well. ;)

The shade you threw on the ambassador bridge wasn't harsh enough.
The beautiful view as you enter Detroit.
2:59 is there going to be a wall blocking the view the whole bridge?
This is sus yet kind of dope, bridge plan they're founding, tbqh.
Do we know if the Canadian port of entry will have meat inspection facilities or will we still be stuck going into Windsor for meat inspections
I work on the site, and this facility will be the most diverse crossing in Canada. All standard needs will be met on site.
Much needed border crossing. Toll price should be adequate.
A much needed Addition 😊😊😊
Can’t wait!
So where is the Duty Free Shop Complex ??
I work on the site. It's not planned to start construction until the bridge is open and operating.
@@redo519 That's too bad....that will keep me from using the Gordie Howe for most of my crossings, until it's up and running.

Why wouldn't it? Dumb question.

great project connecting the USA with its new state!

Can you use EZ PASS?
No all revenue both into and out of Canada go to Canada. EZPass is a US toll system
They have ezpass at the Peace Bridge in Fort Erie.

how much is toll? for canadian entry and usa entry?
Toll rates will be announced this year and will be posted to GordieHoweBridge.com when available.
Wow full building xray! Needs to be MRI though for comedic purpopses and ya know.... free health care
How much will it cost from DT to Canada?
🇺🇸🤝🇨🇦
Windsor is HOME
Wait Canadians gotta pay to cross border? Thought if u wanted to get in USA just gotta show your passport that how the buffalo one work
Buffalo collects tolls on return to Canada and then they are divided between two countries.
I really hope it will accept EZPass
They will have there own system as blue water and ambassador have
It won't have EZPass as that is American. The tolls both to US and to Canada all go to Canada as they paid for the bridge

Or spell?
What bullshit that it's a toll bridge. Our tax dollars already paid for it, but now we gotta pay for it twice
Tax dollars didn’t pay for it, it’s all funded by bonds
The narration sounds like Delmar in the movie, "O, Brother Where Art Thou?" "Dooooo... noooooot... seeeeeeek the treasure"
Is this going to be one extra invasion point of entry ? just asking .
Fox propaganda f#@%€d you up, eh?
I read and kind of saw both sides will have a hazmat area for us
No duty free
You heard it here first, the Orange Dumpster in Washington is going to say he will rename the Gordie Howe International Bridge, the Fred Trump Bridge.
We will call it the we hate Trump bridge, until he’s gone, if that happens.
Tump*. (He doesn't spell his name on socials often)
He ll take credit for getting it built, all due to his great leadership 😂

They used left overs from US - Mexico wall to build it.
You haven’t been paying attention, have you?
Canada paid for the bridge and will recover the cost via tolls.
Once Trump annexed Canada, all these facilities are redundant
