Best Answer

Yes, definitely. Many German Canadians fought for Canada. My grandmother's (oma's) cousin Walter was one of them. His family emigrated to Canada after WW1 and Walter found himself in German again as a Canadian soldier during WW11. After the war he found my Oma and her family, and told them about Canada. Thanks to him I'm a second generation Canadian.

My Oma's cousin survived the war but many did not. There are many Canadian graves in Europe bearing distinctly German names.
