Reminder – HTC Cause and Consequence PRESENT Where are you right now? RESULT What is likely to happen next? CONSEQUENCE What are the probable results?

Mind’s On – Think/Share Quickly Discuss: After the successful recruitment in 1914, what were the short-term impacts/long-term impacts? Who did the government want enlisting in 1917? How does this show us the changes that has happened in WW1 and in Can. society since 1914?

What is Conscription? Canada’s answer was Conscription, also known as the Draft. Conscription is military service by all men of a certain age. It is required by law. This was a pivotal issue in the 1917 re-election of Robert Borden.

Support for Conscription? French-Canadians said “No.” To the French-Canadians, Canada was fighting to protect England. This was not a French war. Farmers said “No.” Their sons were needed to help harvest the crops to feed the soldiers. They were also told they were exempt from service. Labour unionists said “No.” They needed workers to operate the machines making the war equipment.

Consequences – Important New Laws The Military Voters Act This allowed soldiers overseas to vote If Borden promised them help they were likely to vote for him The Wartime Elections Act This allowed many (but not all) women to vote If they had a family member serving they were able to vote

Article Analysis – What Do You Think? Write ‘Conscription – Yes or No?’ in your notes and make a t-chart underneath (one side Yes, the other side No) Using the article you have been given, write down specific evidence from the article supporting that side After a few minutes we’ll discuss/compare/the two sides!

Article Analysis – What Do You Think? YES NO

The Result Borden won the election and conscription was introduced to Canada. About 120,000 were conscripted and only 24,000 went to war The divide between French and English Canada became more bitter. (Internal Conflict) The opportunity for all women to vote came soon after.
