Editing Stanstead, Quebec (section)

==Geography==
The [[Tomifobia River]] runs through the town of Stanstead, dividing the Canada–US border at times. Along portions of Canada's Rue Canusa (Canusa Street), houses on the southern end of the street lie entirely within Vermont, while their driveways direct northward, and connect to the street in Quebec, as the northern portions of their properties are within Canada. These residents' backyard neighbours are American, while families living right across the street are Canadian, though no noticeable boundary exists between the two (the street itself is entirely within Canada). In other places, the international border runs through individual homes, so that meals prepared in one country are eaten in the other. An entire tool-and-die factory, once operated by the Butterfield division of [[Litton Industries]], is also divided in two by the border.<ref>{{Cite news | title = History of Butterfield's| newspaper = The Stanstead Journal| date = 1952-07-31| url = https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=805&dat=19520731&id=KQ8MAAAAIBAJ&pg=1656,1467984}}</ref>

===Climate===
As typical of southern Quebec, Stanstead has a [[humid continental climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification]]: Dfb)<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather-summary.php3?s=995536&cityname=Stanstead%2C+Quebec%2C+Canada&units=| title=Stanstead Quebec Climate Summary| publisher=Weatherbase| access-date=31 January 2015}}</ref> with significant differences of temperature between seasons. Summers are warm but rarely hot and are in general cooler than areas further west on similar parallels. Winters are cold considering its southerly latitude, further demonstrating the continental nature of the climate. The climate is relatively wet resulting in plenty of snowfall in winter.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather.php3?s=995536&cityname=Stanstead-Quebec-Canada| title=Stanstead, Quebec Temperature Averages| publisher=Weatherbase| access-date=31 January 2015}}</ref>
