No, although some people have stated that they had, research showed that young men stood in line for hours to volunteer and sign up. Thank God that they did, so many of those men gave their lives to help liberate Europe especially in Holland where they are honoured every year. God bless every one of them!!

For one thing, the actual conscription enforced on Canada's population was quite small; it also occurred only during the last year of the war. For another, Canadian women (similar to women throughout the western nations) became more active in the work-force as a result of the war-time pressures.
