Hong Kong was the first place Canadians fought a land battle in the Second World War
Hong Kong was the first place Canadians fought a land battle in the Second World War. From 8 to 25 December 1941, almost 2, 000 troops from Winnipeg and Quebec City - sent to Hong Kong expecting little more than guard duty - fought bravely against the overwhelming power of an invading Japanese force.
