Canada in WW2

Overall I think it helped grow it in a positive direction but many Canadians wondered why the U.S. refused to enter while so many Canadians were getting killed to protect the world, including the USA.

Yes, since the start they have found 1,467 BUT we are still counting. They have found? Was there some boxing massacre I never heard of?

The allies met at Tehran because it was considered a neutral location for all of the allies. It was also a good idea to meet here logistically due to Chinese and Egyptian involvement.

Durind ww2, 1,100,000 Canadians had sereved in the armed forces, of these fewer than 100,000 were conscripted, of which only 13,000 were sent overseas. All of the 92,000 Canadian soldiers who served in Italy, were volunteers.

Of course they did. The entire "free" world benefited from the industrial mobilization of the US during the War. Trade with Canada improved, and with the post-WWII housing boom we bought many things from Canada including machinery and, most visibly, timber to frame all of the new houses with.

This is a very simplistic answer so I suggest that you look further into Canada's history. By the way, during the War Canada supplied the US with war material.

Canada is awesome.

You haven't supplied enough information to allow a proper answer. What is "it" and resisting what need to be described.

Same thing that happens to people who believe - nothing. Which god? There have been thousands of gods/goddesses throughout history and not one of them have been proven to exist.

John Colborne,

Depends upon which province or territory you are in. In some the age of majority is 19, not 18.

It think it helped to convince people to help in the war against Germany.

It was also used to promote the production of weaponry and vehicles of war, aka war planes and tanks.

When I was born, I was a Canadian citizen and a British subject. The British government took away my right to be a British subject.

As of the end of the trading day on Jan 4, 2010:

USD $1.00 = CAD $1.0381

therefore,

USD $14.00 = CAD $14.53

Or, to put it another way, one Canadian dollar is worth approximately 96.3 cents U.S.

Nobody knows because no one would go and count every body because it would be too gross it'd be in millions probaly

Please rewrite this question. As it stands, it's a bit difficult to understand.

German soldiers didn't use Canadians for anything during the war. They were enemy combatants.

The expansion for BAM is "Base Auto Maintenance." For instance, my Father served with the 623rd Base Auto Maintenance (BAM) Battalion in Europe during WW2. I am presently trying to determine the duties of BAM units.

Canada was a provence of United Kingdom(i.e. England) and were part of the Allies. Early in the War, Canada trained troops and sent them to England. For a long time, their troops were not used in combat. A group of them were used in the Dieppe Raidwhich failed. So the Canadian people pressured their government to send their troops in the war so they could fight. At the last minute of the planning for Operation HUSKY, Churchill recommended that the Canadian troops be used in the invasion of Sicily. Eventually, the 1st Canadian Division was substituted for the 3rd British Division. The Chief of the Imperial General Staff immediately sent word of inclusion of Canadian troops in Operation HUSKY to the Allied commander in the Mediterranean Theater. The 1st Canadian Division and the 3rd British Division met on all levels to transfer plans on the operation. Their cooperation went so well, that the 3rd British Division and the 2nd Canadian Division were later combined together in the Normandy invasion.

According to the Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage website (refer to the link, below), out of a population of 300,000 Newfoundlanders and Labradorians*, there were 22,000 volunteers who served overseas (Newfoundland's forces were non-conscripted; i.e., all-volunteer). Of those, 1,089 died during the war. * (n.b., the province of Newfoundland is comprised of the mainland, Labrador, and an island, Newfoundland)

It did the job enough to end the depression. when the men went off to war, the women began to work (you've seen the schnieders commercial) and lots of jobs became open in factories supplying munitions and the like.

Although at the end of the war, when the troops came home, in most cases, their pre-war jobs were taken and they had to start over. Ask any veteran, and they'll tell you:

"There's nothing like a war to get the economy going again"

No, it was a disaster.

At this point Canada was no longer a colonony of Great Britain, therefore, Canada had no obligation to fight along side of Great Britain.
