Sarnia Mayor Calls for Removal of American Flags

Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley has requested the removal of all American flags from municipal properties due to President Trump’s tariff war with Canada. Bradley, whose city lies across the river from Port Huron, said the move was considered back in January but held off in hopes the tariffs would end. He cited concerns from locals about the economic damage. Bradley also asked the Lambton Area Water Supply Board to follow suit. The Sarnia council will discuss the request at the next meeting.

Big Changes to Commute

This weekend, folks in Kimball Township will see a big change on their commute. The Michigan Department of Transportation is shutting down part of Interstate 69 to tear down the old Allen Road bridge. Starting tonight at 7, both sides of I-69 will close until Monday morning at 6 a.m. It’s all part of a $2.1 million fix-up, with detours set via Wadhams, Griswold, Range, and I-94. Allen Road will also close at I-69, rerouting drivers through Lapeer and Range. The full project wraps up in July.
