The Haskell Free Library & Opera House, located on the U.S.-Canada border, traditionally welcomed Canadian visitors without passport requirements. However, recent changes in U.S. policy have forced Canadians to enter through a border crossing, raising concerns over smuggling. This shift has transformed a vibrant cultural spot into a site of bureaucratic intrusion, highlighting the bizarre consequences of stringent security measures in a historically friendly cross-border community.
