US Officials Close Canadian Access to Border Library
The Haskell Free Library and Opera House, constructed in 1901, uniquely stands astride the US-Canada border in Stanstead, Quebec and Derby Line, Vermont. This building serves as a lasting symbol of binational cooperation. A line of stones on the lawn clearly demarcates the international boundary that bisects the structure. The library’s existence highlights the peaceful relationship between the two nations.
