The stories of Canadian soldiers and their battles have been told in countless books and articles. But the story of war on the Canadian home front has sometimes been neglected. The home front provided moral support to those overseas, as well as the hardware, bullets, bombs, tanks, ships and aircraft they needed to do their jobs. This document describes life in Canada before and during the war. It discusses conscription, the production of war goods, women in the workforce, rationing, volunteer work and victory bonds.

Download or read book Food Will Win the War written by Ian Mosby and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2014-05-21 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During WWII, as Canada struggled to provide its allies with food, nutritionists warned that malnutrition could derail the war effort. Posters admonished women and children to “Eat Right, Feel Right” because “Canada Needs You Strong” while cookbooks helped housewives become “housoldiers” through food rationing, menu substitutions, and household production. Food Will Win the War explores the symbolic and material transformations that food and eating underwent during the war and the profound social, political, and cultural changes that took place in the 1940s. Through official food guides and policies, the state took unprecedented steps into the kitchens of the nation, transforming the way women cooked, what their families ate, and how people thought about food. Canadians, in turn, rallied around food and nutrition to articulate new visions of citizenship for their postwar future.
