  • 154 Acadiensis Maine: a Bibliographical Review
    154 Acadiensis Catholics could argue that because Saskatchewan and Alberta were created by the Dominion, they should be endowed with a separate school system and guarantees for the French language, but this ignored the fact that the North­ west did have a large measure of self-government and its own Ottawa- approved institutions before 1905. Lupul has discovered that even the minor­ ity's legal adviser felt that the Catholics had no constitutional grounds to stand upon. Bishop Legal of St. Albert was prepared to accept the bill, but not so his metropolitan, Archbishop Langevin of St. Boniface, who demanded a complete return of the separate school system of 1875. However most Catholics realized that Langevin's hard line had done little for them in Mani­ toba, where there were no state-supported Catholic schools, even in name. Consequently, Langevin's position attracted little support from either his fellow bishops or the papal delegate. If there had been an election on the issue, as in 1896, French Canadians would have been able to vote Liberal with a clear conscience because, Bourassa's statements to the contrary, Laurier had gone as far as possible under the circumstances to protect minority rights in the North-West. Even more than in 1896, most Québécois understood that it was pointless to force their institutions upon a region where they had become hopelessly out­ numbered by an unsympathetic majority, particularly when the cost would be more federal power and prestige at the expense of the provinces. The fate of French Canada in the West did not hinge upon the school questions; those issues would not have arisen had that fate not already been sealed.

The issue of the nar- row estuary has become an issue in Iraq, leading to demonstrations in the southern city of Basra, with a number of Iraqi parliamentarians accusing Kuwait of taking part of Iraqi territorial waters. Kuwaiti and Iraqi land and maritime borders were demarcated under the UN Security Council resolution 833 issued in 1993 when former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was still in power. Land borders were demarcat- ed in a simple way, but it took the two countries until 2012 to demarcate the maritime borders in Khor Abdullah, which faces the Kuwaiti islands of Warba and Boubyan, where the Mubarak Al-Kabeer container har- bor is being built. A number of MPs strongly demanded government action in response to what they described as Iraqi provocations concerning Khor Abdullah. “Iraqi MPs statements in this regard are irresponsible because Kuwaiti-Iraqi borders are governed by UN resolutions.

It examines the developments in the period between 1933 and 1955. During this time high-ranking Nazis, local residents, tourists and pilgrims appropriated the house for their purposes by creating various narratives about this space. As unimportant as the house might have been to Hitler himself from the point of view of sentimentality and childhood nostalgia, it had great propaganda value for promoting the image of the private Führer. Braunau itself was turned into a tourist destination and pilgrimage site during the Nazi period—and beyond.
