Canada & the United States Border Anomalies


The border between Canada and the United States largely follows man made lines (the 49th parallel from the Strait of Juan de Fuca on the west coast to Lake of the Woods in Ontario / Minnesota and the 43rd parallel between New England and Quebec). By arbitraly placing a jurisdictional border along an imaginary line, the anomalies created in the form of separated towns, properties, and even buildings are astounding.
