[@marshallbowen8693]

@@shaunhickey7233 You are correct. The Gordie Howe Bridge is paid for by the Canadian government and will be operated by the Windsor - Detroit Bridge Authority, a Canadian Crown company. The owner of the Ambassador Bridge faught for years in the courts to stop its’ construction. It is therefore not a US Megaproject. The bridge authority even owns some Michigan land near the inspection area. Ontario and Quebec are Ohio and possibly Indiana’s largest trading partners and the new bridge will allow much quicker transportation.

Projects and rejects, when the concept of concerns about 'how it's made' or opinions about 'extremely large scale construction'; generates assumptions by people who are learning about it or seeing it online, et cetera; are like 'i am not supposed to know like this, am I?' like, the social work content and context of humility is misrepresented by standards of 'really interesting but publicated for anyone to learn about'. Like, the concept of 'the many unknown subjects needed to understand the true impact of affairs and relations are removed.' like, the implications has more influence than the informants and information seems to be relevant towards value of communication and interpretation of reference. Because of how it is like "The megaproject is something that you should know about." Thus, the assumption of not doing anything but being observed like 'what if this particular viewer is an issue because they just found out about it'. Also, nationality when it comes to the subject of massive scaling construction projects when migration would be relevant to sustain that many culture's of people would be removed from the nationality; due to the basis potentially having limits for claiming association. Insurance when it is independent perspectives but in social media influence of education through community specific news documents but with the assumption that the viewers are concerned about the large scale construction projects because of not finding familiarity nor availability to recognize what to do. Like, socially it's more than the counseling and therapy is reinforced because of unforeseen circumstances of people who are also in a similar social condition. Like, people who are afraid of heights and are afraid of dying from stranger's, etc. Thus, never wanting to be online and never wanting to change... Like, construction means big changes. So, many people may not want to claim their original homeland as their own anymore due to big scale projects and big changes and so forth. Like, much of the social media and news reports could be rejections of therapy having humility based barriers be reinforced instead of therapy and understanding. Like, peer support is a copout humor about reinforcing fear in people who don't want to be around each other when it means that they are reinforcing unhappiness as well as being unsupportive of the decisions claimed psychosocially as recommended. Thus, the seller's market of blind sales like the tons of people have no clue what change's are happening and are not interested (regarding their homeland or nationality or recent past records) but are fine with selling all of it with no return by any means (like an insurance of nonprofit donations because of heritage/ past relevancy/ past associations). Like, being involved with work but only because of people doing social benefit kindness (but under comparative humility)... (Pay gas US, nationality-wise. Like, driving to example letting go of nationality under therapeutic term's; like, culturally responsive needs examples why people may be having success and higher standards and prosperity beyond personal dictation of nationality; like, making a standalone preference for profiling such that further guidance of socially sustainable personalized (community based reference) decisions are able to be one way benefits and types of nonprofit donations like a recognition of personal philosophy and humility).
