Extract from the Wikipedia article; "When Britain declared war on Germany on August 4, 1914, Canada and the other members of the British Empire were automatically involved; they had not been consulted beforehand. On August 5, 1914, the Governor General declared a war between Canada and Germany. "

Canada was part of the British Empire in 1914. Many Canadians were killed fighting for the Allies in the early battles and particularly Neuve Chapelle, the Second Battle of Ypres and in 1916 the Battle of the Somme
