Canada Goes to War

Minds ON This is from an artist in 1914. Who is depicted in the cartoon? What does the cartoon mean? What is the main cause of war in this cartoon

Canada’s Response To WWI Great Britain still controlled our foreign policy This meant that when Britain went to war Canada and the rest of the British Empire also went to war.

Support Support for going to war in Europe was widespread; people were excited Canada offered Britain a force of 25,000 trained and equipped soldiers despite only having an army of 3000

Why Did People Enlist? They thought it was going to be an adventure and that the war was going to over quickly A strong sense of patriotism to Canada A sense of loyalty to Britain A stable job - $1 a day guaranteed

War For Everyone? Women could not join but were expected to support their men Hundreds of women joined as nurses and ambulance drivers to serve overseas Originally no Aboriginal males were allowed to enlist but many still volunteered

Mobilizing the Troops 10,000 joined the first week of recruitment After training the first Canadians set out Oct, 1914 Although serving under British commanders the Canadians served as united troops

War Profiteers War is often said to help economies. War Profiteers are those who make a large profit making goods for war (shells, outfits, artillery, guns, etc.) This was a negative aspect of the excitement for war

Activity – Analyzing Recruitment Posters In your groups look at your poster Discuss the images on your poster If you saw this poster at the outbreak of war what would make you want to go? Why would you not volunteer? What are the creators of the posters trying to make you feel?
