Canadians still visiting U.S. side of Peace Arch Park | CBC News


Saunders said the province of B.C. "kind of has their hands tied" given the legal underpinnings of the park enshrined in 1814 in the Treaty of Ghent, a settlement after the War of 1812 between U.S. and England. The park allows citizens of both the U.S. and Canada to mingle without technically crossing any border. It was meant as an enduring symbol of the sibling-like relationship between the two countries.

Saunders said the treaty stipulates there could not be any boundaries or physical barriers erected on the northern border of the U.S. — and if either side violated that treaty — the boundaries revert back to pre-treaty.

"So if the Canadian government decides that they want to cut off the Peace Arch park from Canadians entering from Zero Avenue by putting up a physical barrier, then technically the United States can claim back part of Southern Ontario and Quebec, under this treaty which would be broken," he said.

And if the Americans violate the treaty? Canada gets back parts of Maine, Michigan and Wisconsin.

New plan. I'm going to get a job in one of the parts of the US that Canada would get, then try to get the US to break the treaty so I suddenly become Canadian and safe from the pandemic.

Tucson voted to increase their police budget after weeks of protests calling for it to be reduced. There was another protest in response to that last night, where protesters got pinned in on the freeway and gassed. I went on Monday, but decided to not cancel a virtual game night I'd planned with friends last night, and now I'm really struggling with my guilt over that.

I have severe anxiety and have had anywhere between 3 and 6 concussions, and I really struggle with physical conflict. But I'm also big and strong and white, and I feel a responsibility to be putting my body on the line and protecting the more vulnerable physically. My gentle nature feels like a betrayal, and my anxiety like cowardice, and I hate it.

On Monday, I did get between cops and protesters, but then crumpled in an anxiety attack. I felt so weak. And I feel even weaker, and selfish besides, for not going and doing it again on Wednesday. I've been doing the letter/email writing, calling reps, donating to causes, and voting from the most consistent and informed position possible for years, and none of it has done anything. But I've been too scared to put my body on the line, and I hate myself for that.

Addendum: I went to Catholic school K-12, and really internalized the guilt and shame of the faith. I always feel guilty and ashamed. Before this new guilt, I was in a state of perpetual shame that I would dare ever feel lonely or, God forbid, even horny during 4 months of total isolation from all other people. I feel guilty or ashamed of half the things I say to other people that weren't perfectly worded. I'm always a mess.

But this guilt and this shame feel productive and justified, and that makes them harder to ignore, and it makes them hurt worse.

I always hear bad stuff about the kids of today. I dont have kids, thanks Corn Darts (original version of corn hole that was outlawed) but every once in a while I'm so impressed by friend's kids. Tonight was one of those times.

After the privileged boomers stop fucking things up we may be OK.
