Dear Canada: Beware of Peter Hoekstra! | Common Dreams
As long as U.S. policy is one of annexation and domination, Hoekstra deserves to be treated as a hostile guest—not an ambassador worthy of distinction or trust.

Canadians will no longer be able to access a library that was intentionally built on the border as a symbol of friendship.
The library and second floor Opera House are only accessed from Vermont. The border, marked as a line on the floor. Looking north, to Quebec A bilingual display of children’s books Canadian historic site plaque LA BIBLIOTHEQUE PUBLIQUE ET LA SALLE D'OPÉRA HASKELL HASKELL FREE LIBRARY AND OPERA HOUSE Deux traits particuliers distinguent ce bâtiment: il chevauche la frontière canado-américaine et abrite à la fois une bibliothèque et un opéra. Don de la famille Haskell, du Vermont, il aété construit entre 1901 et 1904 et témoigne de la croyance victorienne dans les bienfaits intellectuels et moraux de l'éducation et des arts. Son style Queen Anne, tel que conçu par James Ball, est caractéristique des bibliothèques publiques de l'époque. La salle d'opéra, au deuxième étage, dont l'architecture fleurie est celle des théâtres du XIX siècle, peut accueillir 500 personnes. This structure is doubly unusual: it not only straddles the Canada-United States boundary but also contains the rare combination of a library and a theatre. Built between 1901 and 1904 as the gift of the Haskell family of Vermont, it testifies to the late Victorian belief in the intellectual and moral benefits of education and the arts. Its Queen Anne Revival style, as designed by James Ball, is typical of public libraries of the period. The second storey opera house follows accepted principles of 19th-century theatre design and its ornate interior seats 500 people.

Recently voted to be the official bird of the city where I live in Ontario, Canada - and with good reason! Any given day there are dozens of them at our backyard feeder. Sweet little birds.
