Who in Canada is willing to join the fight and who is not? Canada’s Response Britain still controlled Canada’s foreign policy When Britain declared war on Germany, Canada was included automatically Canada at war!!!! Who in Canada is willing to join the fight and who is not?

Canada’s Response Enlistment: 30,000 Canadians enlisted in the first month Reasons: British patriotism, adventure, honour, travel, a job Sense of patriotism – English Canadians felt strong sentimental ties to Britain Feelings of excitement and adventure – many young men viewed war as a “great adventure,” a chance to see the world, and the opportunity to be a hero French-Canadians: Regulation 17, upset and not willing to join the war What does this image reveal about Canadian-British ties? What is the purpose? Is it effective?

Canada’s Response Women –nurses or ambulance drivers overseas; working in factories at the ‘home front’ Minorities –at first not allowed to enlist; eventually accepted (Tom Longboat)

Canada’s Response Sam Hughes Minister of Militia and Defense Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) (For the most part fought as a separate unit) Hughes set up a training camp at Valcartier, Quebec Gave manufacturing contracts to friends (war profiteers) Poor quality equipment and supplies (ex. Ross rifle) Behind schedule Fired in 1916 War: brought Canadians together, developed unity/identity

Canada’s Response War Measures Act 1914 - A law meant to ensure “security, defence, peace, order, and welfare of Canada” Government did not have to go to parliament for approval It has immense control over country: Business, transportation, manufacturing, trade, production, etc. What possible issues do you see as a result of complete government control over society?

Canada’s Response The government had the right to strip ordinary citizens of their civil rights. Mail could be censored and Habeas corpus was suspended. “Enemy aliens”: recent immigrants from Germany and Austria-Hungary could be deported or imprisoned Carry special ID cards and report regularly to registration officers Over 8000 held in internment camps Publications in “enemy” languages banned Spirit Lake Internment Camp, Quebec What is your opinion of the War Measures Act? Was it fair? Was it necessary? If Canada was at war today, how it affect you?
