Canada in the Second World War The Home Front

Learning goals By the end of this lesson, students will be able to… describe Canada’s contributions to the war effort at home during WWII paraphrase and form an opinion on the controversial issues occurring within Canadian society during WWII (Japanese Internment, Conscription, Propaganda, etc.)

A Nation Transformed During WWII, Canadian society was transformed Men were enlisted in the army, navy, and airforce Women formed auxillary groups and performed important non-combat roles Civilians were expected to ‘do their bit’ as well Canada becomes Britain’s most valuable ally

Total War Winning the war meant full-mobilization of all resources at home. War industry boomed – thanks mostly to C.D. Howe (see photo) Resources were rationed back home to be sent as supplies to the Allies (ex. gas, meat, sugar, butter, tea, coffee) C.D. Howe – Canada’s Minister of Munitions and Supply. He had several nicknames such as Dictator, and Minister of Everything.

Interesting Fact: Canadian scientists made several important advances during the war – early radar, airplane de-icers, anti-gravity suits, work on the atomic bomb . . .

New Roles for Women Women filled a variety of other duties back home: worked in factories, constructions sites, shipyards, and farms . . . operated their households ran nurseries collected clothing donated blood

Interesting Fact: Elsie MacGill won the Order of Canada for her role in building Hawker Hurricane fighters during the war

Paying for the war Income tax helped pay for some of the war. Victory Bonds used again – temporary loans to the gov’t ($9 billion worth)

Propaganda Posters, movies, magazines, and radio – used to lead people to a certain opinion CBC and National Film Board used to give positive news about the war Propaganda also had a very negative impact in some cases. . .

Propaganda as a Destructive Tool LIFE Magazine Archives: http://www.life.com/image/84295579/in-gallery/27932

Walt Disney Propaganda? YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqMVpcbhpqw&feature=PlayList&p=7D746A29832954E2&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-PZVrWvJM0

Interesting Fact: Censorship in Canada meant that few people heard about Japanese ‘balloon bombs’ that were sent from Japan and meant to explode over North America, setting forest fires. Only about 290 ever reached us out of about 9000, and the damage was minimal.

Treatment of Minorities Canadian law discriminated against visible minorities Special internment camps set up for Japanese-Canadians Japanese Canadians suffered the worst: Lost possessions Moved to the ‘interior’ Businesses seized and sold 22,000 displaced http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mqSfnZ7D2I

Interesting Fact: When WWII began, both the Canadian air force and navy had strict rules about who could join. The RCAF required officers to be of ‘pure European descent,’ and the navy required recruits to be a ‘British-born subject, of a white race.’

Conscription P.M. King had promised no conscription for WWII But…he changed his mind King asks Canadians to be released from his promise Limited conscription by 1941 – home defense only Canada divided again (French and English)
