Detroit Bridge PKG

The United States and Canada share the world’s longest undefended border, but a privately owned bridge between the two countries is now the focus of a sharpening dispute.

An American billionaire has owned and operated the bridge for decades. Now both Canada and the US want to break his control over North America’s busiest crossing point.
