Best Answer

In 1914 most Irish people wanted Home Rule but a lot of people still wanted complete independance. that's why people supported both de Valera and Collins

In the cities especially Dublin people were happy with the status quo. More wanted independence in the south and west then the east simply because they were poorer. After 1916 and the war of independence more and more wanted to break away from Britain but when the British did leave they were sent out of Dublin to crowds of wellwishers.

How did the Irish immigrants change Canada?

They helped create Canada. Some of our Fathers of Confederation were Irish, most famously DArcy Mcgee, our first politician to be assassinated by the Americans, or as they prefer by an American, actually they prefer if we say by an Irish man who just happened to be American but that is another answer. The Irish were also one of the groups that built the railways in Canada, including the railway to the West Coast. They have been traditionally been very supportive of independence from Britain and of minority rights in Canada.

The Irish don't hate Britain. There is a long history between Ireland and Britain, with Britain having invaded Ireland.

There is some animosity between Irish and British people but there are also very strong links between the two countries. Many Irish people live in Britain and many people in Britain are of Irish ancestry. The Irish are the largest immigrant group in Britain.
