Good morning.
The owners of the Rubber Duck Museum in Point Roberts — that strange little U.S. enclave glued to B.C. but cut off from the rest of Washington — are moving their collection of vintage bath toys to Tsawwassen Mills.

I have long thought #pointroberts has gotten the short end of the stick. Geographically it doesn’t make sense for them to be part of the US. #USpoli #canpoli
US/Canada border redrawn so that point roberts is a part of Canada.
I think we should work on getting the fine people of Point Roberts to secede from the US and join Canada.
We'll call it the Canadian Peninsula.
Thoughts?

🇺🇸 AMERICA'S MOST CANADIAN TOWN TRAPPED IN TRADE WAR 🇺🇸
The Guardian's Alexandra Tremayne-Pengelly reports from Point Roberts, Washington — so Canadian it sells gas by the liter and half its residents hold dual citizenship. Trump tariffs are killing it.

*Everyone* (who's a map geek) knows about #PointRoberts, surely 🙂
“Point Roberts warrants a unique solution due to its geographic quirks, according to Calder, who is appealing for help on a “humanitarian basis” to ensure its survival.”
NW WA tends to go Republican. Did they get what they voted for?

We lived in #PointRoberts and I expect the Bald Eagles that nest on that exclave may not return south after the Salmon run.

This is hard to watch cuz it’s a group of people that their govt just doesn’t care about. I used to go there quite a bit in my misspent youth.

Caught in the middle, this quaint US exclave is grappling with Trump’s trade war with Canada

How's #pointroberts holding up? I imagine it must be super lonely out in that little enclave. Possibly the Americans I actually feel bad for. Actually cut off from America and Canada alike. Most have enhanced licenses or dual citizenship since half of point Robert's belongs to Canada. But it's
In Tsawwassen, BC, #Canada there is a border crossing that takes you to #PointRoberts, #Washington. They are reliant on Canadians. Canada should pull that area back into Canada (49th parallel, 49th schamarallel). Be kind to the people of Point Roberts. canadiangeographic.ca/articles/on-...
You have to travel through British Columbia to get to Point Roberts, Wa., and it's usually full of Canadians, visiting their vacation homes or nipping across the border for cheaper gas. These days, the community of 1,000 people is receiving just a trickle of visitors from across the border, and […]

#pointroberts grocery store is empty. The coffee shop is empty. The town relies on mostly Canadians for its economy along with BC Hydro and Vancouver water. I feel for them but… Canada comes first. Your president continues to threaten us with annexation. Do something. It’s getting worse. #cndpoli
In America's 'most Canadian town,' Trump's trade war wounds wallets and hearts. The tiny community of #PointRoberts is a little bit of America, firmly fixed to British Columbia. www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/national/in-... via @CdnPressNews

Dear Donald, Canada has no interest in being a part of the US. However we would like all of Pt Roberts to be part of Canada. We’ll trade you Drake for it 😊 #Drake #PointRoberts #BoycottUS
Came here to say the same thing. #PointRoberts
A selfie of me, pointing behind my back towards a sign that says United States and Canada. The sign is vertical and narrow. It is for the border. I am making a fake terrified face.
A road goes off into the distance between two stands of trees. It is a road to America. The end is unknown. There’s a fire hydrant in white with a blue top in the foreground just outside the window of the car. We are parked alongside the border.
Phew! That was close.
I kid. Hi America! 👋
Good luck next week. This part of you seemed ok. Hoping for the best for the rest!
