During World War I, Canada established internment camps for enemy aliens, including many German nationals. Approximately 8,579 individuals were interned, with a significant number being German immigrants, as well as Austro-Hungarians and others perceived as threats. Internees faced harsh conditions, and many were eventually released, but the experience left a lasting impact on their communities. In 1983, the Canadian government formally acknowledged this injustice by offering compensation to the survivors and their descendants.
