Minorities in World War I
Today, Canada is one of the most diverse countries in the world with people from every cultural background working together with equal rights. This wasn’t the case back in WW1.
During WWI, minority groups such as Aboriginals, Blacks, Asians, and even some Europeans faced discrimination and had limited rights. Before the war, minorities already experienced discrimination, but during the war things were much worse. Although most of them were restricted from joining the army, there were many significant contributions that impacted Canada.
This website will include information about the general lifestyle and the contributions of minorities during WW1 at home and overseas.
