Some examples from this set of practice questions
1.
Why did Canada agree to host the BCATP? (British Commonwealth Air Training Plan)
Answer: Mackenzie King hoped that Canadian contribution to the war effort would remain mostly at home, and he saw the BCATP as a chance to further this wish. Canadian climates and landscapes and distance from the war itself were also factors that led to Canada being chosen.
2.
What is the Total War policy?
Answer: Total war means that the country is now obligated to do whatever is necessary to contribute to the war effort. Industries were told what to produce and how to produce it. This was a large factor in why Canada became such a major manufacturer.
3.
Why was the Dieppe raid a failure?
Answer: Canadian troops lacked the important element of surprise, and were subsequently ambushed the moment they set foot on shore. Further miscommunication between troops on land and troops on the sea led to additional reinforcements sent in who were gunned down as well.
4.
Describe the Battle of the Atlantic.
Answer: The Battle of the Atlantic was a continuous fight between Canadian supply ships and German U-boats that patrolled the Atlantic.
5.
Why was the Italian Campaign launched?
Answer: British Prime Minister Winston Churchill felt that Italy, more specifically Sicily, was akin to a soft underbelly of Europe and wanted to reclaim Europe starting from there.
