Well, I am all for building a bridge from Erie to Ontario and then building a wall to block it, right in the middle. Paid for by Canada and built by free Mexican labour. Who's with me?
In all seriousness, the distance across lake Erie at it's narrowest point is only about 25 miles of bridge, and there is a bridge from hong kong to macau that is 34 miles so it isn't even that unusual.
Unusual and impossible (and usual/possible) arent the same thing. How many bridges are there that are longer than 30 miles? If it is less than 100 or even 50 I would not could it a usual length for bridges.
Kelly's Island, OH to Middle Island, ON is less than 4 miles. Still no bridge so it doesn't count for this quiz, but, for comparison, at the Olympics in a few weeks, the longest swimming event is 10km (6.2 miles), so the distance is definitely within swimming distance.
Yes, exactly where is Alaska? - If it is, in fact, geographically between Washington State and Canada, then why isn't it put there on any of the jet punk quizzes, but is delegated to the bottom of the map along with Hawaii.
It's to the West of Canada, separated from the rest of the USA. It is moved to the bottom on quizzes because if it was in its proper place it wouldn't fit in the map.
I know it’s weird because Minnesota has a hockey team and is cold all the time and they talk all funny, but that area next to Wisconsin is actually Minnesota. And surprisingly, Minnesota has not been annexed by Canada yet.
Incorrect. Ohio and Pennsylvania each have a border with the Canadian state of Ontario within Lake Erie. For the purposes of this quiz these borders (being neither land nor bridge) don't count but it doesn't make your comment any less wrong.
According to The National Museum of American History, there are 13 states that border Canada. These include Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington and Alaska.
"There are 11 U.S. states that share a land or bridge border with Canada."
Ohio and PA: no land borders, no bridges.
Nowhere near as much frozen solid surface in the current at the other.
OK pedantically technically it does have a border with Canada.
