Group Brainstorm

World War I brought significant changes to Canadian society and culture. Firstly, Canada began to assert itself as an independent nation, marked by accomplishments like the victory at Vimy Ridge and an independent signature on the Treaty of Versailles. Secondly, the role of women transformed as many joined the workforce and gained the right to vote, embodying the first wave of feminism. Lastly, the war led to declining Canadian unity, particularly evident in the tensions between French and English Canadians highlighted by events such as the Good Friday riot.
