Default Nipigon River bridge fails, severing Trans-Canada Highway

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/thunde...nada-1.3397831

The Trans-Canada's single point of failure has been exposed forcing drivers to take a crazy long detour through the USA. It is not even like this was some aging infrastructure that governments had refused to fix, it was a brand new bridge which opened on November 29th, 2015 (42 days ago)! Clearly something has gone very wrong in the design and/or construction causing it to fail during its' first winter.

Also, reminds me of South Park: "This is Canada, we only have one road".
