New Gateway to the Ambassador Bridge — and why it’s opening years late
Published: September 26, 2012
The Moroun family and the DIBC spent years delaying completion of a much-needed project that will benefit many because they were trying to further their own narrow self-interests.
Now, having lost that battle, they are pulling out all the stops in an attempt to deceive voters across the state, trying to con them into believing that the DIBC and the Moroun clan really care about the people of Michigan.
The lesson to be learned from the court battle over Gateway is this:
The bridge company and its owners will do and say just about anything to get their way.
And they cannot be trusted to look out for the public's interest.
Ever.
