Gordie Howe Bridge opens soon -- so why is everyone so quiet about it?

The Gordie Howe International Bridge, a $4.7 billion project decades in the making, is set to open soon, but there has been little public celebration or official acknowledgment from Detroit officials, the governor, or the bridge authority. Key figures, including former Michigan Governor Jim Blanchard and Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens, note the lack of fanfare is due in part to strained U.S.-Canada relations and uncertainty about the opening ceremony details.
