During which years did Canada intern Austro-Hungarian people in labour camps?

  1. 1912 to 1918

  2. 1914 to 1920

  3. 1916 to 1922

  4. 1918 to 1924

The correct answer is: 1914 to 1920

Between 1914 and 1920, Canada interned Austro-Hungarian people in labour camps. This was a result of anti-immigrant sentiment and discrimination during World War I. Option A is incorrect because 1912 to 1918 does not include the beginning of World War I in 1914. Option C is incorrect because 1916 to 1922 does not include the end of World War I in 1918. Option D is incorrect because 1918 to 1924 extends beyond the end of World War I in 1918.
