Causes of World War 1

When Britain declared war in August 1914 Canada was at war 1914 – Canada Goes To War More than ½ of Canadians were of British heritage and saw Britain as the “Mother Country” Canada was a Dominion of Britain; Canada was in charge of domestic affairs but Britain still controlled its foreign affairs When Britain declared war in August 1914 Canada was at war

Canada in 1914 Canada was experiencing an economic depression Factories were closed and unemployment was high The prairie provinces had experienced a 2 year drought ruining the wheat crop 50,000 people had lost their jobs from the troubled railways

“It is our duty … to let Great Britain know … that there is in Canada bit one mind and one heart, and that all Canadians stand behind the Mother Country, conscious and proud that she… engaged in war… to save civilization from the unbridled lust of conquest and power.” Wilfrid Laurier
