Niagara Falls: A tale of two countries
From the Centre Daily Times: New York State is one of few places where you don’t necessarily travel north to get to Canada. A chunk of Southern Ontario actually lies south and west of the Empire State, making the nickname “True North” more of a quip. And if you make it to Niagara Falls, you…
