This propaganda poster was used to
encourage enrollment of men to serve overseas for the 73rd Royal
Highlanders of Canada regiment. The message is that men are needed to defend
their country. This poster appeals to the patriotic side of people as it talks
about fighting to preserve our freedom . It also uses the statement “God Save the King” which
people at that time used to define their patriotism to the King of Canada and
Britain. I like this poster because it
shows a lot about the time period and
our dependence on Britain. It demonstrates that while we were not yet
independent of Britain governance, there was a sense of country and comradery.
The war united people for a cause.
