Why Did Canada Have Prohibition. Prohibition in Canada was the culmination of multiple movements, and multiple things happening in the time period of WWI. The fight against alcohol, or the Temperance Movement, began as early as the 1860âs.he fact that prohibition was passed in most of these provinces after women gained the right of suffrage is attributed to the suffrage and temperance movements of this time. Another reason for prohibition occurring was the rationing of food that took place in Canada during the First World War.
Prohibition in the United States was a nationwide constitutional ban on the sale, production, importation, and transportation of alcoholic beverages that remained in place from 1920 to 1933.This act, which had been intended to save grain for the war effort, was passed after the armistice ending World War I was signed on November 11, 1918.) The Wartime Prohibition Act took effect June 30, 1919, with July 1, 1919, becoming known as the Thirsty-First.
