Aboriginal Peoples- Aboriginal people's path was much more simple than some of the other minorities since there was no restriction in enlisting. They also felt that if there country went to war that it was part of obligation to serve. However they were treated very poorly and an example of this is them not being accounted for in the war. This did not stop them from being a big part of the Canadian War effort.
Black Canadians- Black Canadians faced major prejudice and racism when contributing to the war effort. They had to create their own battalion called the No.2 Construction Battalion just to be apart of the war and even then they could not contribute on the front lines since it was a "White Man's War". Only about 100 made it on the front lines. They helped with the war effort on the side lines so much that they had to make a rule where they had to enlist and fight.
Chinese and Japanese People- Around 300 Chinese and Japanese people volunteered in the war effort but very little is known. Even though they fought for Canada in the war the government didn't want to give them citizenship due to the having the right to vote. They also faced racism and prejudice throughout the war. An example is: "In 1917, when he was 28 years old, Wee Tan had tried to enlist in the army in Kamloops but was rejected because he wasn’t white.

So he bought a horse and in the dead of winter set out from Kamloops to Calgary to see if a regiment there would accept him. The journey across the mountains took three months but in February 1918, he was enlisted in Calgary’s 10th Canadian Infantry Battalion and sent to France." (Answer Sheet). This shows the length an individual went to participate in the war and after all of this they still weren't allowed to be a citizen.
All of these Minorities faced major setbacks and roadblocks in the war but I believe that Chinese and Japanese People were treated the worst. They had to participate in the war and fight for their country and their lives to survive and when all was said and do they came back to their government not allowing them to be citizens. They came back to start normal lives again they had to deal with becoming a citizen and setbacks that the government put in place. That is why I believe they were treated the worst.

Aboriginal peoples - many Indigenous people lived in isolated areas of the country. They were originally discouraged from joining the war but later on worked in hospitals and behind enemy lines. Hundreds are buried in that soil, away from the lands of their birth.

Black Canadiens - During WW1  Black Canadiens were not allowed to enlist to go to war even tho they were hardworking and wanted to protect their country. They faced racism and only 100 Black Canadiens out of the 1,300 that volunteered.

Chinese and Japanese Canadiens - The Chinese and Japanese Canadiens weren't allowed citizenship but they were allowed to serve.

in my opinion, Japanese Canadiens were treated the worst during WW1 because they didn't get citizenship, and later they were not allowed to join the war effort after.

Black Canadians in Canada found out about the war and wanted to protect their country, but only about 100 were able to serve in the front war. They all faced issues, especially racism. Most of them used snipers. The chinese and Japanese were not granted citizenship due to racial issues but were allowed to serve in World War 1. Chinese were treated brutally,and the worst between all of the races due to the fact thet they were not allowed to have a citizenship after the war but the black Canadians were able to get theirs.

Most black Canadians the lived in Canada heard about the war and wanted to protect their country, but only 100 of them were able to work in the front war. They all faced problems mostly racism. Most of the black soldiers were very skilled and mostly used snipers. The Chinese and Japanese weren't allowed citizenship also because of racism, but they were allowed to serve in the war. I believe that the Chinese were treated to worst out of all three groups because they were denied citizenship after the war but the black Canadians were allowed after the war.

Black Canadians encountered prejudice when attempting to join the military. They were frequently rejected or given low-paying employment as labourers or cooks. Nonetheless, just a few black Canadians were ultimately permitted to serve in battle.

Even though they were Canadian citizens, the Canadian government first forbade Chinese Canadians from enlisting. This was brought on by historical racism and prejudice against Chinese people. Yet in 1916, the government changed course and let Chinese Canadians to enlist in the military.

Japanese Canadians were not permitted to enlist until 1916, and even then, they could only participate in non-combat activities. Due to bigotry and prejudice, the government outlawed Asian Canadians from serving in the military altogether in 1917.

In my opinion, Japanese Canadians received the worst treatment during World War I because, although being Canadian citizens, they were completely cut off from the war effort.

Around 300 people served in the Canadian Armed Forces. The Chinese Canadians faced lots of racism during that time and Chinese Canadian’s weren’t given Canadian citizenships. The Canadian Government didn’t want to give citizenships out so he created many rules to prevent so. The Canadian Government also did not want the Chinese People in Canada to have the right to vote like a Canadian. Wee Tang’s brother Wee Hung, served as a gunner, wireless operator and driver. They were treated very badly and most of the Chinese Canadians were even able to enlist in the army because they were listed as “Different”.The Chinese government opposed Chinese Canadians serving in the military during World War One. They did so out of concern that their participation in the war effort would invalidate the Chinese Exclusion Act, a prejudiced statute that barred Chinese immigration to Canada. The Act was seen by the Chinese government as a means of protecting Chinese immigrants, and they did not want to run the danger of losing this protection. As a result, Chinese Canadians were essentially prohibited from joining the armed services of Canada, despite the fact that many of them expressed a tremendous desire to help in the war effort and demonstrate their allegiance to Canada.The Canadian government implemented a number of laws and policies in the late 19th and early 20th century with the intention of limiting immigration from China and the rights of Chinese Canadians. The Chinese Immigration Act of 1923, which essentially outlawed Chinese immigration to Canada and made it extremely impossible for Chinese Canadians to get citizenship, was one of these regulations that had the greatest impact. The government deliberately employed this tactic to deny Chinese Canadians the ability to vote and take part in the political process. The government was able to uphold a system of racial exclusion and prejudice that lasted well into the middle of the 19th century by refusing them citizenship.

Aboriginal Peoples:

Aboriginal Peoples in Canada, including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples, have a long and complex history with the Canadian state. Many Aboriginal Peoples were forced to attend residential schools intended to assimilate them into European-Canadian culture. As a result, many Aboriginal Peoples experienced systemic abuse and cultural genocide. Many Aboriginal Peoples enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces during World War I and World War II.

Black Canadians:

Black Canadians have a history that stretches back to the 17th century, when slaves were brought to Canada by Europeans. Although slavery was abolished in Canada in the 19th century, Black Canadians continued to face racism and discrimination. Many Black Canadians enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces during World War I and World War II, hoping  to gain equal rights and opportunities.

Chinese Canadians:

Dating back to the 19th century when Chinese workers were brought to Canada to build the Canadian Pacific Railway. Despite their significant contributions to Canada, Chinese Canadians were subjected to systemic racism and discrimination, including the Chinese Head Tax and the Chinese Exclusion Act. Many Chinese Canadians enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces during World War II, hoping to gain equal rights and opportunities.

Japanese Canadians:

Japanese Canadians have a history in Canada that dates back to the late 19th century. During World War II, Japanese Canadians were subjected to the Canadian government's seizure of their property and belongings. Despite this, many Japanese Canadians enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces during World War II, hoping to gain equal rights and opportunities.

In my opinion, it is difficult to say which group was treated the worst. Although, the internment of Japanese Canadians during World War II is widely regarded as one of the most awful violations of human rights in Canadian history.

Chinese and Japanese Canadians were treated bad simply because they didn’t want them to be enlisted in the Canadian war, they rode horses to find a war to enlist in. Over 300 Chinese and Japanese Canadians enlisted in the war,“It’s generally accepted if a foreigner fights for a country during a war, they are entitled to citizenship. The Louie brothers weren’t foreigners, they were born here, but that didn’t matter. When conscription came in, they were exempt because the government didn’t want to give citizenship to Chinese,” most  we’re rejected just because they weren’t white, it didn’t matter they were Canadian. They were the most oppressed. I believe in my opinion it was wrong that many were not taken to the war when they offered just because of race, they put up a big fight and even travailed around canada to try and participate.
Aboriginal people-
Aboriginal people were treated poorly when it came to the Canadian war, they were pushed away while the government hoped they would just choose not to enlist, when they saw so many aboriginals had enlisted they made a very clear policy of not allowing these recruits to serve overseas. They were allowed to serve anywhere else but overseas, they served in the European wars because more Enlisted and were allowed. The aboriginals had a quote on quote “bad look” because they were believed to be “vicious” and “savage” because of their culture,the policy was not strictly enforced and was cancelled in late 1915 because of the large number of enlistment applications from First Nations people. In my opinion I believe this one was the worst out of the three not only was it racially motivated it was believed their culture was “vicious” and “savage” only because of things like their traditions. They were the ones treated the most not like real people.

Black Canadians-
In the war 3-500 Canadians enlisted to be in the war, the war was believed to be “ a white mans war” and many white men that were serving said they would not participate if there were black men,so everyone that was black was told they weren’t allowed to volunteer. It eventually became a rule that black men could participate and be taken to a different place if they wanted to enlist. In my opinion I believe over time the revolution of this black Canadians in war got better over time, not only was it unfair before it was racially motivated to just not allow black Canadians to participate.

Black Canadians- Black Canadians were treated very poorly and faced racism. Only about 100 made it to the front of the line. Black men faced barriers when trying to enlist in Canadien military.

Aboriginal people-Although they were originally discouraged from enlisting, policy would shift during the war to become more accepting of Indigenous enlistment and recruitment. But they were not registered properly and not treated like real people.

Chinese and Japanese people- There were about 300 Chinese-Canadians that volunteered in Word War one but very little is known. Chinese people were the most oppressed and poorly treated due to the Sino-Japanese war.

Black Canadians were hardworking Canadians who had heart and wanted to protect their country, they faced racism and prejudice when enlisting and only about 100 made it to the front lines.  Aboriginal Canadians faced issued when enlisting because many of them weren't registered properly, but they were skilled soldiers who helped hold the enemies back with snipers, they also helped out in hospitals. The Chinese and Japanese weren't allowed citizenship but were allowed to serve. All 3 groups were treated very poorly, but black and Asian Canadians faced the worst treatment. Black Canadians were put into grueling labour jobs and faced outlandish amounts of racism. Chinese Canadian soldiers had it the worst after the war as they were denied citizenship over a voting policy, so they just fought for a country that doesnt want to claim them
