Toronto and World War I - Part 1 (1914-16)

World War I was a cataclysm that fundamentally changed western civilization. Toronto was just a small piece of this massive event, but four years of war would transform the city in ways both big and small. In commemoration of Remembrance Day, our next two episodes will tell the story of Toronto during the First World War – how the city supported the war effort, how Torontonians volunteered to fight and sometimes die overseas, and how the war changed the lives of the people who stayed behind.You can follow Muddy York on Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Toronto_History⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/muddyyorkhistory/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music:The Dover - The Westerlies Argonne - Zachariah Hickman Hard Times Come Again No More - The Westerlies Oh, It's a Lovely War! - British WW1 SongLook What My Boy Got In France - British WW1 SongWhat Are You Going To Do To Help The Boys? - British WW1 SongOver There - British WW1 SongSound Off Alert-March - United States Marine BandLola - United States Marine BandWith Shot and Shell - United States Marine Band
