Canada During the World Wars and Inter War Years Including the Military History of Canada During the Wars and Great Depression in Canada (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. During the World Wars and interwar years Canada experienced economic gain, more freedom for women and new technological advancements. When World War I broke out in 1914, all Dominions of the British Empire, including Canada, were called upon by Great Britain to fight on its behalf. Canada's sacrifices and contributions to the war changed its history and enabled it to become more independent, while opening a deep rift between the French and English speaking populations. Canada suffered greatly when the Great Depression began in 1929. While the decline started in the United States, it quickly spread to Canada because of the gold standard and the close economic links between the two countries. This book studies events in Canada during the world wars and interwar years including Canadian Crops, Halifax explosion, Balfour declaration of 1926, and On-to Ottawa trek.
