Manuel Matty Moroun
Manuel Matty Moroun was a prominent American businessman known for owning the Ambassador Bridge, a critical trade artery between the United States and Canada. His acquisition of the bridge in 1979 sparked significant controversy due to his efforts to maintain control over the tolls and operations, often leading to legal battles to prevent competition. Moroun's legacy is marked by his contentious relationship with local and federal governments, particularly in light of new infrastructure projects aimed at improving cross-border trade, such as the Gordie Howe International Bridge, which he opposed vigorously.
