By A House of Commons committee is holding a special meeting today on the Gordie Howe International Bridge as the Liberal government continues to face questions about its revenue-sharing agreement with the U.S.
The meeting is expected to be mostly administrative, with MPs set to discuss the scope of the study and a list of witnesses.
The proposed agreement in principle to open the bridge, which opened to motorists on Monday, says Canada will share half of net toll revenues with the U.S. for the next 15 years.

Conservative MP Kelly McCauley said on social media last week that he would convene a committee meeting to allow MPs “to get to the bottom of the matter.”
