Summary
The bungled demobilization of Canadians returning from the First World War contributed to a period of intense political, social, and economic upheaval. At the outbreak of the Second World War, Ottawa - having learned from the previous domestic turmoil -… immediately began planning for the return of veterans, who ultimately numbered more than one million, to civilian life.
