<div class="moz-cite-prefix">There are family homes, and restaurants
in northern Vermont / southern Quebec that have the national
boundary line (and hense the tz region) running through the middle
of the buildings. (Rock Island Qc/Vt, for example) This is not a
big tz issue now since both Montreal & New York follow
similiar rules, but it certaily must have been confusing in the
1990s for a few years when their dst rules were different!<br>

The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomifobia_River"
title="Tomifobia River">Tomifobia River</a> runs through the
town of Stanstead, dividing the U.S./Canadian border at times.
Along portions of Canada's <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canusa_Street" title="Canusa
Street">Canusa Street</a>, houses on the southern end of the
street lie entirely within Vermont, while their driveways direct
northward, and connect to the street in Quebec, as the northern
portions of their properties are within Canada. These residents'
backyard neighbours are American, while families living right
across the street are Canadian, though no noticeable boundary
exists between the two (the street itself is entirely within
Canada). In other places, the international border runs through
individual homes, so that meals prepared in one country are eaten
in the other. An entire tool-and-die factory, once operated by the
Butterfield division of <a

in two by the border.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a
