Historic Sites of Manitoba: Boundary Cairn (International Peace Garden)

A stone cairn at the International Peace Garden, between the Canadian and United States border stations on Highway 10, was erected on 18 July 1937 by Kiwanis International. It reads “This unfortified boundary line should quicken the remembrance of the more than a century old friendship between these two countries. A lesson of peace to all nations.”
