Camps in Canada during World War 2?
As much as I know there were no Concetraition Camps in Canada, that is a stupid quetion if I have ever heard one.AnswerThere were 26 Internment Camps established in Canada which held Japanese Italian and German Canadians. More than 30,000 were affected by these camps including 100 Canadian Communists. Forty Prisoner of War Camps were set up for 33,798 German and Italian POW's and 6,437 Civil Internees (mostly Merchant Marine).Please note Internment Camps and Concentration Camps are NOT the same thing.
