I live in Newfoundland, the (current) most eastern point of North America. We did not “join” Canada until 1949. Many people don’t know this, but the US spent 100 million (in the 1940s!) building bases here as the eastern front of “protecting the western hemisphere”. Seems like people are forgetting the us military build up here during war times.
