AI Article Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a reduction in tolls for the Confederation Bridge and interprovincial ferries in the Atlantic provinces, effective August 1, 2025. The Confederation Bridge toll will decrease from $50.25 to $20, with ferry tariffs cut by half. This move aims to alleviate living costs for Canadians and stimulate local economies, costing the federal government approximately $100 million annually. The reduction addresses long-standing demands and is partly motivated by trade tensions with the United States.
