Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and Canadian
Prime Minister Stephen Harper will be holding events in Detroit and Windsor,
Ontario today to sign an agreement allowing for the construction of a new
bridge from Michigan to Canada. The events will begin at 12:45 pm today and
will be streamed live for viewing at www.michigan.gov/snyder.
The announcement comes as a new study from
the Center for Automotive Research is released showing the construction of the
new bridge would have a $2.2 billion impact on Michigan’s domestic product and
create 12,600 jobs over a four-year timeframe.
