Canadians saw their first action in World War I at the Battle of St. Julien, which took place in April 1915 in Belgium. This battle was part of the larger Second Battle of Ypres, where Canadian troops faced the horrors of gas warfare for the first time. Their bravery and resilience in this challenging battle marked a significant moment for Canada, contributing to the emergence of a distinct Canadian identity within the military context.

I've never heard them referred to as the Canadian Expeditionary Forces during WW2. Maybe that was used in WW1.The first use of Canadian forces was during the Dieppe raid, which was a failure. There were not a large amount of Canadian troops in this raid. The Canadians first saw combat in Italy. The largest battle that the Canadians participated in was Ortona.
Actually, the American Civil War, when 1000 Palmer carbines were purchased for the cavalry.
