How many canadian civilians died in world war 1?

Answer 1

While over 67,000 Canadians died fighting in WWI few remember the thousands of Canadian civilians that died. Officially only 2,000 died but many more died in the Merchant Marine. They were not military but were none the less targeted by German navy including U-boats. Thousands died at sea. They knew they were heading out into danger but still they left. How many died? Thousands too many.
