Not so in the Second World War, Canada made its own choice to join. Thats why the Canadian declaration of war was about a week after Britains.

In the 1st World War Canada was obligated to join with Britain.
If you don't think Canada was obligated to assist Britain in WWII you're off your rocker. Even if Canada was not an official colony at that point (not too sure) I'd assume there were legitimate treaties in place assuming the support of every single British colony in the world. And you know what? Every single British colony went w/ the Brits. Canada didn't have a choice.
