The US oligarchs complaining they should get part of the tolls can avoid paying tolls by using the other bridge. If they want tolls from the Gordie Howe they can pay Canada for building it or shut up.

Exactly – this is all about competition against the Ambassador bridge, because it'll impact the profits for them. If they wanted to see profits from the Gordie Howe, they could have stood a little taller and not let themselves get lobbied out of it.

The funny thing about that is Canada offered to buy the Ambassador Bridge in 2009, but the owner wanted almost double what the government offered. They only started talking about building the Gordie Howe after that.
