Part 2: The Roaring 1920’s

The Roaring 20’s After the misery of WW1 was over, people tried to enjoy life to the maximum. The economy was in an upswing, which meant Canadians could afford more luxuries and leisure time. The decade became known as the “Roaring 20’s” People enjoyed new forms of technology and entertainment

Bootlegging During WW1 alcohol was banned, which brought about prohibition. However, the ban was a failure and Canadian Provinces ended the ban in The United States continued prohibition until Canadian bootleggers took advantage of this and supplied alcohol to the U.S illegally. Many criminals profited from bootlegging, including Al Capone.

Bootlegging

Increased Mobility The automobile was beginning to change the landscape of the country. The invention of the assembly line by Henry Ford in 1913 meant that cars could be mass produced inexpensively and quickly. By the late 1920’s 50% of Canadian homes had an automobile. This prompted more and better roads to be built, making travel easier for Canadians.

Increased Mobility

Arts and Leisure Since people were enjoying their new found prosperity, they sought out new forms of entertainment. Movies became wildly popular Movies were silent until “talkies” were invented in Canadian-made films couldn’t compete with movies produced in the U.S. Eventually Hollywood came to dominate the movie industry.

Arts and Leisure

Missing The Roar Not everyone benefitted from the social and economic changes of the 1920’s. Despite the rights won during WW1, women still faced challenges. The main role of women was still seen as wives and mothers. Women were expected to stay home and raise a family. Single women had limited career opportunities. Women usually earned much less than men for doing the same job.

Aboriginal People in the 1920’s Despite their contribution to the war effort, aboriginal people were still not classified as “persons” under the law. They could not vote in Provincial or Federal elections. Aboriginal people did not win the right to vote in Provincial elections until They were finally able to vote in Federal elections in 1960.

Aboriginal People in the 1920’s The government continued its efforts to assimilate Aboriginal people’s into mainstream society. They did this by placing children in residential schools and by outlawing rituals, ceremonies and traditional ways of life. Aboriginal people’s continued their struggle against the government regarding land claims and negotiating Aboriginal land title. Aboriginal people also fought against enfranchisement and for self-determination, a fight that still continues today.

Immigrants After WW1, the Canadian government put restrictions on immigration. Preference was given to immigrants from Britain and the U.S. Restrictions on Asian immigrants were harsh. In 1923 the government passed a law that virtually excluded Chinese immigrants to Canada until In 1925, as the economy boomed, the government relaxed some restrictions. Many immigrants who arrived in Canada, found that they were forced to work in terrible conditions for pitiful wages.
