Canadians Banned From Border-Straddling Library

CTV News reports:

A small town in southern Quebec says American authorities have decided to close the Canadian access to an historic library that sits on the border between the two countries. Inside the Haskell Free Library and Opera House there is a worn strip of black tape on the floor marking the U.S. and Canadian border. For decades Canadians have been able to access the library without a passport or visa by entering the Canadian side of the building.

The Town of Stanstead said in a news release late Thursday evening that U.S. officials have made a “unilateral decision” to close access on the Canadian side. It’s not clear why the change was made. The library recently made international headlines after Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited it in January, stepping over the tape on the Canadian side of the building and referring to Canada as the “51st state” multiple times.
