I am not sure why a New Brunswick station would want to operate from the W9
black hole but perhaps the following ARRL article will answer your question:

The FCC rules are
rather permissive: the control operator must be able to ensure
the immediate proper operation of the station, but the control
point can be anywhere. For operation across international borders, both the
operator and the station must be licensed by the
administration where the transmitter is located. CEPT
Recommendation T/R 61-01 does not apply: if, for example, a
European amateur wants to operate a remote station that's
located in the United States, he or she must have an FCC
license.

If I am a single op (or maybe even part of a multi-op) and the owner/control
op is at their property, am I legally allowed to operate it, remotely over
the internet?
Let's say the station is in W9 and I am in NB, Canada. I have no US ham
license.
If this is allowed, and I'm single op can I use their home callsign? ie:
W9XXXX or would it have to be VE9AA/W9
(I presume if this is allowed and I am part of a multiop, we'd just use the
W9XXXX call.
Tnx
