Our government will probably propose putting a fence up on the Canadian border in response to this ongoing Mohawk-Canada border dispute.

Police in eastern Ontario shut down a border crossing to the United States that traverses the Akwesasne Mohawk Reserve on Cornwall Island for several hours this weekend in the latest confrontation in an ongoing border dispute.
The closure Saturday appeared to be the result of a dispute over the Mohawks' obligations to report to Canadian customs.
The crossing over the Seaway International Bridge was closed shortly after noon at the request of the Akwesasne Mohawk police, said Cornwall police Staff Sgt. Pierre Pilon. It reopened at about 5:40 p.m. local time after discussions between Akwesasne Mohawk leaders and Canada Border Services Agency officials.
