The first large scale and successful use of poison gas was at the Second Battle of Ypres. Germany released chlorine gas in a light wind that took it into trenches controlled by French forces, causing them to flee. Canadian forces filled in the gap created and counterattacked through further gas attacks, eventually winning the battle.
