Exploring the Canada Road : Delving into his past leads man along ghostly route

Weber, Tom

Article on geographer and anthropologist Barry Rodrigue's exploration and excavation of the Old Canada Road, or the stretch of land between central Maine and the Canadian border that traverses the northwestern part of the state. This route is known to have been traveled by migrant workers and emigrants - now mostly tourists - between Quebec and New England. The article connects Rodrigue's work to the cultural heritage work of Yvon Labbe, whose efforts to publicize a tourism corridor along the same route were acknowledged and bolstered by the support of Maine and Quebec government officials.
