Virtually all Canadians who fought in WW1 were volunteers, not conscripts.  Almost 10% of the entire male population enlisted and served in that war, not 10% of the age group eligible to enlist, but 10% of the entire male population of Canada.  That is one of the most distinguishing and remarkable aspects of our contribution which set us (plus Australia and New Zealand) apart from the other participants. You should brush up on your history before making false statements.
