Canada declared war almost immediately. It was already committed to defense of the Pacific because of the deployment of two Canadian infantry battalions to the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong. Those battalions, the first Canadians to see land action in World War II, were destroyed when the Japanese took Hong Kong. I wrote an article on it for World War II History magazine. That was also the only land battle Canadian troops fought against the Japanese. Canada also moved to intern Japanese-Canadians during the war. During WWII, Pearl Harbour had an immense effect on Canada. Around 1,352 Canadian men lost their lives here, and many others were injured.

Was the attack on pearl harbor in Canada was a success?

Pearl Harbor is located on the island of Oahu, a Hawaiian Island, a US terrirory in 1941. The Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor & other bases on Oahu on December 7, 1941 was a tactical success, but a strategic failure for Japan. Canada was the first nation to officially declare war (on Japan) after the attack. Japan's declaration of war on the United States, Netherlands, and the British Empire (including Commonwealth nations) was not accomplished until many hours after the Pearl Harbor attack.
