The Post Office was built in 1929 and is still used today. It's 800 meters north of the US border.
There is no online information available for this building. It's only 82 years old and in some circle, it doesn't become an historic building until it's 90.

It is believed company founder William Ogilvie, originally from Scotland, named Gretna after Gretna Green in Scotland, where runaway couples were married by the blacksmith at his anvil.
An anvil sits in the park near the Post Office.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing Canada Post waymark, you will need to post a unique picture of the Canada Post sign. Including your gps device in the picture is not neccesary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
