Training Polish Soldiers in Canada, First World War

In 1917, more than 22,000 Polish volunteers came to Niagara-on-the-Lake in Ontario to train for the First World War. These men were special because although most of them were Polish immigrants, they lived in the United States, and were trained in Canada to prepare to join the French army. Their experience highlights how the First World War was a truly international effort.
