Wed, 5 May 2021
The Canada-US border has been closed since the start of the pandemic more than a year ago, but not for Paul-Maurice Patenaude who operates a parcel handoff service from his house, which straddles the international boundary. I am both in Quebec and in the State of New York, look how beautiful it is! laughs the 82-year-old pensioner, one foot on either side of a black line marking the border through the ground floor of his 200-year-old stone and wood building.
DUNDEE (AFP) - The Canada-United States border has been closed since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic more than a year ago, but not for Mr Paul-Maurice Patenaude who operates a parcel handoff service from his house, which straddles the international boundary. I am both in Quebec and in the state of New York. Look how beautiful it is! laughs the 82-year-old pensioner, one foot on either side of a black line marking the border through the ground floor of his 200-year-old stone and wood building.
Dozens of packages of all sizes left in his drop-off box have been sorted and stored on shelves to await pick-up.
