•Adolf Hitler (Germany)

•Japan had some fascist characteristics as well


• bullied his way to a dictatorship by 1925.

• was determined to make Italy a great nation again at the expense of other countries like Abyssinia (Ethiopia)

• signed the Rome-Berlin Axis with Germany in 1936.

He:

•Swing kids 1:08 - 1:23

Arvid’s rejection of Nazi style“nationalist belonging”


• C. Japanese militarism and imperialism also led to international conflict.

• Japan attacked China’s industrial region of Manchuria in 1931

• Japan’s imperial ambitions in the Pacific region (their “Co-prosperity sphere”) led to the decision to bomb US navy at Pearl Harbour in December 1941. This triggered the American declaration of war on Japan. Germany then declared war on the US.


• 2. Weakness of the League of Nations:

• The League did little about the above mentioned aggression. There were too few strong members. Instead they used the policy of appeasement.


• 3. The policy of appeasement:

• Granting wishes to a demanding country to keep peace

• England, France and Canada used this policy with Germany.

• Germany was allowed to disobey the Treaty of Versailles - without consequences.


• Beginning in 1933, the German military expanded in secret. By March 1935, Hitler “went public” on Nazi Germany's military expansion thus breaking the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. England & France learned the Nazis had 2,500 war planes in its Luftwaffe and 300,000 men in its Wehrmacht. - Hitler then announced compulsory military service (conscription) in Nazi Germany, increasing their army to 550,000 men.

Some of what the appeasers allowed:


• England was forced to declare war against Germany

B. Canada’s Response• Initially it was one of avoidance and isolationism.

• 1937 - Prime Minister King visited Hitler and concluded the German dictator truly loved his fellow man.

• Canada was still practicing a policy of isolationism.

• This means staying out of international affairs.

• during the Great Depression, we tightened immigration policies

• 10 000 immigrants were deported

• 1931 - Canada’s doors temporarily shut to immigrants

• 1939 - SS St. Louis sent back from Montreal with 900 Jewish refugees

• Canada’s immigration director said in reference to Jewish refugees, ‘none is too many’.


• England declared war on Germany on September 3, 1939.

• Prime Minister King called Parliament together to decide what to do about the war.

• only one member of Parliament (CCF leader J.S. Woodsworth) was against Canada going to war.

• A cabinet minister (Lapointe) from Quebec spoke in favour of declaring war but against conscription.

• King promised his gov’t would not conscript soldiers.

• Canada declared war on Germany on Sept 10, 1939 (7 days later than England).
