On Canusa Avenue, houses on one side of the street are in the USA, but on the other side they are in Canada. Its a spot favored by illegal immigrants, and authorities are taking notice. The US is planning to build a wall on the street, and they've already installed a customs post. Duration: 01:50

  • These are strange things: I have read that Us-Canadian border has been open since theAnglo-American war in 1812 according to the following treaty of peace.

  • @0LuckyInternetUser0 I am from Quebec originally, I can tell you. This area of Quebec was settled originally by Loyalists. These were American colonials loyal to Britain so they refused to be part of an indepedent USA. About 5% of the English Canadians are loyalists.

    As a result, many towns in Southern Quebec have English names but nowadays the population is more French speaking. But you can still see many Anglican churches (Episcopalian as the Yanks would say).

  • @VD420herpes oops looks like i`ve come across a delusional moron. *slowly backs away* look kid why don`t you just crawl back into your cave. I`ve got more constructive things to do with my leisure than to argue with a dull witted and oh so irrational child over youtube. ;)

  • @BostonCreamDonut I'm Canadian. Tell me this, if ur gonna shoot someone, and I know it, and I drive you to that guy's house to do it, have I commited a crime? We escorted the American fleet there so it safely arrived to drop bombs on civilians. Jets that drop bombs there refule in CFB gagetown and other bases in Nova Scotia. We have military planners helping to plot the deaths of people there. Our hands are far from clean - we live in an illusion... wake up.

  • fucking stupid cunts in congress

  • why the heck is stanstead an english name in french canada?!

  • @alboss13 Of course people go outside the country THIS IS A FREE WORLD MORON! people in Japan go elsewhere, people in Norway go elsewhere, people in Italy go elsewhere etc etc, but its the same in every country the people that do go elsewere are in the minorty. Christ its like talking to a 3 year old with you. 85% of Canadians approve of our current system, I hv a feeling you`re one of the 15% that don`t, if you don`t like it get the FUCK OUT. Go wither away into obscurity now you fool

  • @BostonCreamDonut From RCI Radio Canada International "More Canadians Seek Health Care Abroad" "Even though Canada has a publicly funded health care system, some Canadians prefer to go outside the country for medical treatment. We look at why and where they go with Professor Valorie Crooks of Simon Fraser University" What about now you fucking retard. Now get lost

  • @alboss13 What happened with your argument on health care with me? sorry but i`ll be honest I laughed my ass off when you said Canadians fly half way around the world to get treated in the developing 3rd world, with a health care system years decades behind ours. It kind of makes you less reputable ;). Anyways Canada has only participated in wars with the GO AHEAD of the UN. Which is exactly why Canada refused to go to Iraq. Again get your head out of your ass you delusional twat.

  • @BostonCreamDonut Search CBC articles and read statistics. Educate your self before you insult others.
