A black line on the floor marks the Canada-U.S. border that runs through the Haskell Free Library and through the lives of the people who live in Stanstead, Que., and Derby Line, Vt. Matt Galloway hosts a live show in this unique venue, after months of simmering political tensions that have tested the enduring friendship between the two countries.

We hear from bestselling author Louise Penny, whose new novel explores a sinister plot to make Canada the 51st state — though she’s keen to point out she wrote it before Donald Trump was re-elected as U.S. president — as well as musical guest Patrick Watson and local residents who live the reality of the border every day.
