| Excerpt from a quote by Dr. Henry Moore in 1932 "The Great Garden will be on the Canada to Canal Highway at a point on the International Boundary between Dunseith, North Dakota, [United States of America] and Boissevain, Manitoba, [Canada] and 60 miles south of Brandon, Manitoba. The location is almost the exact center between the Atlantic and the Pacific and but 30 miles north of the exact center of the North American continent, at Rugby, North Dakota. The highway extends from a point 200 miles north of the boundary to the Panama Canal and is to extend north to Churchill, Manitoba and south to Cape Horn, [Sudro Americana]. Upon this Main Street of the Americas (and will be the longest north and south highway in the world), will travel millions of people in the days to come." |
