Context: Matthew Moroun, the former owner of the only bridge between Detroit and Windsor (two major cities right next to each other) refused to add pedestrian lanes to it. Something that really fits in with the regions history of getting fucked over by the auto industry.
Canada and the U.S are finally building a new bridge between Windsor and Detroit that will include multi-use pathways (Moroun tried his hardest to sue it out of existence before he died) so hopefully cyclists and pedestrians will finally be able to cross the Detroit river in a few years.

Why has he not simply been been shot and had his bridge nationalized?
well he's dead now so that complicates things... but i suppose they could dig him up and shoot him anyway.
The Oliver Cromwell treatment.
