∙ 13y agoCanada was a colony of Great Britain, who was a part of the Triple-Entente.
When the First World War started, Austria-Hungary wanted to punish Serbia for one of it's people in a terrorist group called the Black Hand for assassinating their heir to the throne, Archduke Franz Fernidad, and his wife, Sophia, while they were on a visit to Serbia. Since Serbia was allied with Russia, Russia began to mobilize it's army to protect it. Germany saw this as a threat, and then declared war on Russia. As part of the Triple-Entente, Britain and France declared war on Germany, and by extension, Canada did too.
