Can anyone shed some light on the status of the Canadian territory in
Vimy, France? This area contains the well-known Canadian war monument
and cemetery, and also an open-air war museum (some trenches of the
frontline have been preserved, and there is an information centre). All
road signs are very Canadian there as well (as far as I can judge - I
have been to Vimy, but never to Canada). Is it just Canadian property,
or is somehow sovereignty involved here?
