About The Website

The purpose of this website is to provide insight into Canada’s participation in World War One, and how Canada used posters, newspapers, and music to sell and promote the war.

The website consists of various sections for users to explore, including several collections of Canadian posters, newspapers, and music that were used during the First World War. An information page is included to give users a better understading of Canada's use of wartime media, as it relates to the sources that are available on the website.

For help with navigating the website, there are tags such as: food and rationing, music, patriotism, recruitment, victory bonds, and war effort, to help distinguish categories within the poster, newspaper, and music collections.

For more general information on Canada's participation in World War One, check out the Canadian War Museum website, or visit the museum in person: Canadian War Museum Webite.
