Monchy is the transition point between Saskatchewan Highway 4 and U.S. Route 191. Originally a small settlement it is now primarily a border crossing. On the opposite side of the border is Morgan, Montana. Monchy was named after Monchy-le-Preux in France in commemoration of WWI battles fought there by Canadian forces.[2] The border crossing is staffed by the Canada Border Services Agency during the day and closed at night.[3] The border crossing consists of a customs building, residence and three storage buildings[4] Growing pressure exists on both the Canada and US side of the border to expand the border crossing to 24-hour operation,[5] Notable people
