Final answer:
By 1961, the provinces and territories of Canada agreed to send delegates to a Women's War Conference, granted women the right to vote in provincial elections, and introduced conscription during World War I.
Step-by-step explanation:
By 1961, all the provinces and territories of Canada agreed to a number of important actions.
- Each province and territory agreed to send delegates to a Women's War Conference held in Ottawa in 1918 to address issues such as child welfare and national health.
- The suffragist movement made significant progress during this time, with women gaining the right to vote in provincial elections in several provinces between 1916 and 1922.
- In 1917, the Union Government, formed by Conservatives and Liberals, introduced conscription as a controversial measure to replenish the casualties suffered by the Canadian expeditionary force in World War I.
