Of the 6,000 ground troops landed in the raid, 5,000 were Canadian.
Answer There were many differences but one primary difference was the objective. The objective of the Dieppe raid was to capture a coastal port, if only for a short period of time. The ojective of the Normandy invasion was to capture a large area of land. They designed their own floating ports to build on the beaches. This would suffice until a city port could be captured. The Allies learned from Dieppe and N. Africa and Sicily that it would be difficult to capture a port from the ocean.
The Dieppe Raid took place at the seaside town of Dieppe, in France. It was on August 19th 1942. About 950 Canadian Soldiers were killed in action that day, and 2,340 were captured or wounded. The Canadians were only able to get a few hundred yards inland, due to the high sea wall, and the heavy German fire. The 35 tanks that they brought ashore were bogged down in the small stones that made up the beach. The stones jammed the tank tracks so they couldn't get off the beach either. A terrible waste of good men.
It didn't work - Dieppe Raid was a complete disaster.
