What damages did Canada take after World War 2?

The economy of Canada improved after World War 2. They had sold bonds to fund the war effort too and did not have debt or as you say damages. They did lose over 40,000 people to the war and over 50,000 were injured. Canada was able to recover well after World War 2 just as the United States did. They were or became part of the United Nations. I have added a link for you to read about Canada and its experience before, during and after the war. They did not have the struggles the Brits had because Canada had not been heavily bombed as Britain had been. They did help the Brits with their recovery process.

Why did president Johnson believed that it was important for the US to win in Vietnam?

He feared a communist takeover in Southeast Asia if the United States left Vietnam. He believed in the plausibility of the domino theory; that Communism would continue to spread if allowed to move unchecked throughout the world. His decided that it was less costly to escalate the war and get it over with. Unfortunately, he was wrong. Once the US was deeply into the war, he did not want to lose, knowing that it would weaken US prestige in the world and with the American people to give up without winning anything. He believed in the domino theory.
