Gregor Robertson: “Our understanding is we’re opening the bridge on Monday.”

Given the recent tariff action from the US, we felt that we should focus today on celebrating here in Canada.

Let us remember why we built this bridge: to connect our communities and our countries, to inspire and improve lives, to create and safeguard jobs, to build a resilient future — and to build Canada strong.

In turn, we remain committed to opening the bridge on July 27, and to celebrating this milestone among Canadians on July 24.

We thought it’s more appropriate for us to focus on celebrating in Canada here today.
