FBCL is a Crown Corporation that owns and operates certain border crossings, including the Blue Water Bridge. In the first three months of the year, the Ambassador Bridge saw 496,796 commercial truck trips, compared with 531,732 at the Blue Water Bridge. "Historically over the decades, the Ambassador Bridge was always the leading crossing between Michigan and Ontario by a significant number," he said. "It goes to show you the price sensitivity of tolls and the tremendous value of the Gordie Howe Bridge to the supply chain." The Ambassador Bridge was also asked about rising tolls and shifting traffic patterns but did not respond.
