War Measures act 1914

“Enemy Aliens” A national living in a country that is at war with his/her homeland.

Why Canadians were concerned with “enemy aliens”… Canadians thought that “enemy aliens” might contribute to sabotage or espionage in Canada.

War Measures Act The Government’s solution to “enemy aliens” “for the security, defence, peace, order, and welfare of Canada.” Controlled transportation, manufacturing, trade & agricultural production. Set up internment camps Censorship: banned publication of books & magazines in enemy languages. Suspended habeas corpus.

War Measures Act “enemy aliens” were required to carry special identity cards and regularly report to registration officers. As the war dragged on into its third year, Canada's labour force became desperate for workers. In response to this, many of the internees or "enemy aliens" were released to work in factories and on farms. Many times they were forced to work in places that were far away from their families
