Ok so here’s the problem. In the politest way possible, you don’t understand the new deal.
Canada owns the 6.4B in costs to construct the bridge. This includes the debt and interest.
Canada WILL RECOUP ALL COSTS TO CONSTRUCT THE BRIDGE. DEBT WILL BE PAID OUT. YOU HAVE TO PAY THE DEBT AND INTEREST IN ORDER TO GET NET PROFITS.
After the debt is paid you get net profits. These net profits will now be split 50/50. Previously, Canada was to receive all of the net profits in an effort for Canada to recoup the costs of construction faster. Then the split would be 50/50.
I don’t know what’s up with that guy. The new deal is fine, sure it was better before as it was pretty clear we keep everything but splitting half the PROFIT is alright. Also there is no word about preventing the toll to be lower than other bridge. They just can’t see past their hate for Carney I suppose.

Nope. Tolls are split immediately.

You’re wrong, stop posting misinformation
First line. USA Canada to split profits. If the deal is so good, why won’t Carney release the full details?
The operating costs on a brand new bridge would be next to nil.
