It is not known exactly how many indigenous men went over seas with the first AIF in 1914 but it is known that at least 300 aboriginal men fought in World War 1. Of these approxomately 45 died and 59 were severly wounded. The number of indigenous people was most likely much higher although many of them pretended to be Maoris to hide there aboriginality.

Who people was the first Canadian?

Although the land presently known as Canada was occupied for thousands of years by first nations people it was not known as Canada until 1535 when French explorer Jacques Cartier used the word Canada to identify lands used by local inhabitants. By 1545, European books and maps commonly referred to this region as Canada. So these first "Canadians" were the local natives and the French explorera and settlers. If, however, there were no "Canadians" until the Dominion of Canada was formed in 1867, then the first Canadians were the native population, the British and French settlers, freed and escaped slaves from America, and immigrants from around the world. Aboriginal were the first Canadians. The first Canadians could speak 53 different languages.
