The Sherwood–Carievale Border Crossing connects the towns of Sherwood, North Dakota and Carievale, Saskatchewan. Unlike many nearby small prairie towns, Sherwood and Carievale have maintained relatively stable populations over the past century. This is the easternmost border crossing in Saskatchewan.
History
Border inspection services were first conducted at this crossing in 1930. The US first built a permanent inspection station at the border in 1937. That brick veneer roadside border station was replaced by a wooden structure in 1981, and that facility was replaced by a large modern border station using Recovery Act funds in 2011.[1] Canada last replaced its border station in 1973.
