Canadians often characterize their military history as a march
toward nationhood, but in the first eighty years of Confederation
they were fighting for the British Empire. War forced Canadians to
re-examine their relationship to Britain and to one another. As
French Canadians, Indigenous peoples, and those with roots in
continental Europe and beyond mobilized for war, their
participation challenged the imagined homogeneity of Canada as a
British nation. Fighting with the Empire examines the paradox of a
national contribution to an imperial war effort, finding middle
ground between affirming the emergence of a nation through warfare
and equating Canadian nationalism with British imperialism.
