1942 All industries, materials and people working for the war effort.

Hello war = bye bye depression New factories built Old factories adapted for war purposes Factories produced thousands of guns, ships, fighter planes and military vehicles.

Men away = labour shortage (1941) Answer- Women get back into the workforce

At first only single women Eventually married women and mothers Government even funded daycare centers so that women would be free to work. In 1943, there were approximately 225,000 Canadian women working in munitions factories.

In 1941, women were able to enlist in their own divisions of the Army, Navy and Air Force. Not allowed into combat during the Second World War, but they did just about everything else. Nurses, stretcher bearers, drivers, machine operators, cooks and secretaries. Flew Canadian built planes to bases in Britain They were paid roughly 60% of what males in the military were paid

Certain staple goods were rationed: Meat, Butter, Tea, Coffee, Gasoline, Tires (rubber), Alcohol, Clothing Fabric and Silk

Government raised taxes help pay for the cost of the war. Return to an old idea: Victory Bond drives. Conducted nine Victory Bond drives between June 1941 and October These campaigns raised nearly $12 billion by the end of the war.

In 1942, King decided to hold a vote for/against conscription. 80 percent had answered yes out of the nine provinces but 70 percent of Quebec said no.

Prime Minister Mackenzie King was determined not to bring in conscription during World War II. King promised that conscription would be Canada's last resort Finally in 1944, after he had tried so hard to avoid it, conscription had been introduced. Very few recruits from this Conscription campaign actually ended up going to fight in World War 2
