Dismay as cross-border library caught in US-Canada feud: ‘We just want to stay open’ The Haskell Free Library and Opera House sits half in Canada, half in Vermont. Now, the US is planning to cut off main entrance access to Canadians

"It’s like giving the finger to the current administration: you close one door, we will open another one.”

Well said, #LouisePenny

Petty tension rising antics by D.H.S. target boarder straddling free library seen as symbol of peaceful cooperation between USA & CAN — Recursive Generative Emergence A response to the facts presented in https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7489528

The #U.S. just cut off #Canadian access to the #HaskellFreeLibrary —a building that literally straddles the border as a symbol of peace. This isn’t about security. It’s about ego.
