Canada in WW2

ya they sent a few

In 2004 US Ambassador to Canada Paul Cellucci stated that, although he was disappointed in Canada for not outwardly participating in the "Coalition of the Willing", Canada indirectly provided more support for the US in Iraq than "most of those 46 countries that are fully supporting us. It's kind of an odd situation."

== == On December 8th 1941, the Japanese attacked the Allied forces that were defending the area around Hong Kong. After a long and heroic battle, the defenders were forced to surrender on Christmas Day the 25th of December. Surrounded and out of food and water, the British, Canadian and Indian troops were taken prisoner and began a four year period of touture , starvation and death. The Japanese treated them like slaves and forced them to work in dangerous and brutal conditions, in coal mines and factories. At the end of the war in 1945, only about half of the original number of POW;s were still alive. Many of those that did survive died at a young age due to the lack of proper food and the beatings that they were subjected to by their captors.

364 Canadians died on Juno Beach with 574 wounded and 47 taken prisoner.

On the second day of the invasion 11 Canadian prisoners of war were executed by the head of SS Hitler Youth. They are counted as casualties of D-day by some historians.

Canada is a massive country, the second largest in the world. Even in May, it would have a vast range of temperatures, from very cold to very hot. For a question like this, you need to be a lot more specific and give us a particular place in Canada, before it would be possible to give you any sort of answer.

Find a weakness in German defenses and take over Dieppe.

The reasons were primarily political. Stalin harassed Churchill to open a war in Western Eupore and relieve pressure from Russia, lest Russia seek a separate peace with Germany......in which case the bulk of the German war machine would be free to fight Great Britain. Rather than mount a large invasion which might fail, it was decided to send a smaller force to capture and hold Dieppe, one of the channel ports on the French coast. Only seven regiments would be committed, and no warships other than destroyers. Thus, if the operation failed (which it did), not much would be lost, and it would still be a gesture of support to the USSR from Great Britain.

Monte Cassino refers to the WW-II battle at the monastery of Monte Casisno above the town of Cassino, Italy South of Rome and was the site of four major battles over a four month period between February and May of 1944. The historic monastery was destroyed by American aircraft after bombing the site in the false belief that German troops were using it as an artillery observation post. German troops occupied the ruble and it became even more difficult for the Allies to dislodge the defenders.

an englsh is not a word i think but englIsh is

lol c(:

An English is a person from England. It is also the language spoken by people from England.

First of all, World War 2 immediately ended the Great Depression in Canada. And for the first time, Canada declared war on its own behalf. The war made Canada a more independent nation from Britain, but brought it closer to the United States. After the war was over, veterans returned home with their war brides, and Canada opened its doors to immigrants. This resulted the Baby boom and a tremendous increase in population. Canada was once again prosperous. With the treat of nuclear war with USSR, Prime Minister Lester Pearson installed the nuclear arm with the United States.

William Lyon Mackenzie King's parents were Isabel King and John King.

Canada doesn't have a meritocratic system of education. Most of the top officers in Government agencies and corporate organizations are from the Baby-Boomers generation and have somewhat much less education credentials than the new generations. They were at the right place, at the right time (1970s-80s). It is very frustrating for the overeducated and underemployed new generations and immigrants to Canada. The only way to change this overly conservative system would be to begin a reengineering process in those organizations and get rid of the incompetent senior managers. Canada would then begin to be more competitive on the global scene.

As of March 19, 2009 Tyler Hansbrough of the University of North Carolina holds the record with 2789. The previous record was held by J.J. Reddick of Duke with 2769. Tyler broke Reddicks record on March 19, 2009 against Radford in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

The United States.

Germany attempted to exterminate them, killing over six million European Jews, leaving fewer than one million alive in the areas under Nazi control. Hitler thought of a plan that will wipe out all the Jews in Europe called "Final Solution".Which will slaughter the Jews day and nite. And burned their body to ashes for use as a fertillizer on German gardens.

Dieppe Raid was an allied attack during WW II on a German occupied French port of Dieppe. During the battle Royal Marines commanding officer Lieutenant Colonel Philips died while trying to steer his men clear of German fire. The battle ended with a German victory.

he created the creation of old age pensions-1926

Unemployment insurance-1946

Yes he died first, as he is mentioned in the bible, before Abraham and Lot.

India does have a large military force, but many of their soldiers receive low levels of training and much of their equipment is dated. In terms of size, the largest army is China, in terms of military personnel compared to the population, North Korea is greatest. While the United States has the most technologically advanced weaponry.

Coding was important in WW2 because the enemy could by then intercept radio messages. It was necessary to put them in code to hide the meaning.

Why would Canadians enlist in the American military instead of their own...

The traditional answer is WWI and the taking of Vimy Ridge in France. Canadian troops, under the command of the British, were able to succeed where many other nations had failed.

That Vimy Ridge is in France, was key to the Canadian propaganda of the event. At the time Canada was a young Confederation which included a large number of French peoples. The French in Canada were very resistant to fighting for a British King.

Having Canadian troops be so successful in the French homelands showed that a strong Canada could help out the French even if it wasn't in Canada.

The fact that the credit went to the British who were in command was also something the French Canadians could be convinced was less than optimal.

Many French Canadians saw how Canadian troops were used against French Settlers in today's Manitoba. Even though such military actions were sold as being against savages and half bloods, it seemed clear to many French Canadians, still feeling the sting of 1759, that having a large and strong Canadian military might not be such a good idea.

Vimy Ridge helped change that.

By the time WWII came Canada had their own military, their own troops and commanders and were a proper part of the Allies of WWII.

Getting out of from under British military command was key to Canada seeing itself as an independent country.

It is this history that has many Canadians uncomfortable that Canada today does not have the military it once had and is for all practical purposes under American command.

We are still allowed to have our own troops and under our own command but without the ability to support or equip those troops we are right back to where we were 100 years ago.

That Canadian identity so hard fought for has been lost and is now being replaced by the myth that Canada is, and always was, a pacifist country with only peacekeepers.

Canada needs another Vimy Ridge, Canada again needs a new identity.

Canada had many different ethnic groups and each one of their response to war varied

English canadians had great enthusiasm

French canadians didn't want to join war and had low enthusiasm

Native canadians had tremendous enthusiasm but were mocked at the beginning of the war and the government refused to let them join the war, but later allowed them and many able-bodied natives men joined the war

Black canadians weren't allowed to join war first, but the government changed policies and many were allowed later on but many did volunteer even though they mostly did labour work in the war rather than any fighting

Japanese canadians were rejected first but then were let and they showed decent support because they wanted to show their loyalty to Canada
