Matthew Moroun, owner of the Ambassador Bridge, met with top Canadian officials in April as the Gordie Howe Bridge prepares to open and end his family’s century-long monopoly. Details of their tense, secretive talks are redacted, but it’s clear Moroun pushed for a say in how the new corridor operates — a rare move for private interests in international crossings.

Why Canadians Say Zed Not Zee | Montreal News

Montreal News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! ·

2026/08/23

Why do Canadians say “zed” instead of “zee”? It’s a quirky linguistic legacy tracing back to ancient Greek, filtered through French and Latin, and cemented in Canadian identity as a subtle but powerful marker of distinction from America. While Noah Webster championed “zee” to forge American uniqueness, early Canadian schools leaned into British norms favoring “zed.” Though American media has eroded its use over time, older generations still cling to it — proving that even a single letter can

2026/08/23

Tariffs were meant to revive American manufacturing and boost jobs, but economists reveal they’ve instead become a stealthy wealth transfer—hurting everyday consumers while rewarding big corporations.
