Canada's U.S. Consulate General is in the area to take part this week's festivities both in Fort Frances and International Falls.

Jamshed Merchant says it's given him a good perspective of the relationships enjoyed by the two communities.

He says his participation in the tug of war showed him the closeness of Fort Frances with International Falls.

Merchant is also meeting with elected officials to discuss mutual concerns.
