How did Canadians win on Juno beach?

they were strong, they had element of suprise, they were more experinced __ The Canadians landed on Juno Beach later than the other assaults taking place during D-Day because they had to wait for high tide to get the landing craft close enough to shore so the German troops were well prepared for the assault. When the Canadians made it inland they ran into the Hitler Youth Panzer division - very experienced, very brutal troops. Despite this they managed to take the beach and surrounding towns by the end of the assault. There was no element of surprise on Juno because the defending Germans were alerted to the attack by soldiers on the other beachheads (Omaha, Sword etc). So by the time the 14,000 Canadians landed German defenses were prepared. The troops came in waves, 3,000 in the first wave. When they landed, the men ran like hell towards the barbed wire, and other obstacles in a desperate bid to remove them. Most of the initial stages of the battle was bitter hand-to-hand combat as the Canadians slowly moved up the sand and took pillbox after pillbox out. The victory can be attributed to strong leadership from the officers, and sheer dogged determination of well trained soldiers. As the beach was secured heavier equipment was moved in and the Canadian troops moved inland.

What role did Canadians play after d day?

Well they did assault Juno beach and manage to penetrate further into France than any other landing force. Also Juno beach was the second most heavily defended beach. Candian minesweepers also cleared mines in the waters near the beach before the landing to help landers reach the beach and there were Canadian Paratroopers Dropped into France I'm pretty sure to help liberate objectives before the main forces arrived. I hope this help cuz I'm also doing something on this There were no Canadian paratroopers in Europe with the Americans Idiot
