time the amount of women working as domestics dropped to below 20%
Most women did not become lawyers, doctors, professors or engineers Women who did work in business and industry held jobs as
secretaries, telephone operators, or sales clerks

In 1920 Canada had only 1600 km of top rated highways a figure that increased tenfold by the end of the decade. the Canadian Shield and the rocky mountains were physical barriers that delayed the construction of the Trans-Canada highway. as a result most of the better roads ran south to the united states. these closer north-south connections led British Columbia to change from driving on the left-hand side of the road (the British system) to the right-hand side (the U.S system) in 1927.

Jazz Music in the 1920’s
By Brett Smith-Daniels
![Page 60: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
The 1920’s sparked a revolution in the way music was played, in New Orleans, black musicians started to use ‘improper musical technique’, by improvising, and abandoned almost all of the rules of classical music, to create Jazz. Unlike classical music Jazz was loud, fast, and exciting, and many Jazz musicians didn’t read music, or understand traditional musical theory.The previous generation didn’t appreciate the fact that Jazz pushed the boundaries! Jazz Orchestra’s were assembled to suit the likes of composers, they would range from as little as 3, to as many as 20 or 30 musicians!
A New Idea
![Page 61: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
The Idea that only a few musicians could make a big sound, was something that originally spawned from the early blues music of the Mississippi Delta region! When adapted to the musical styling's of the new Jazz sound, the idea of smaller musical groups became popular because of the fact that it was easier to fill dance halls, and earn money from performing, when there were less people!

The Jazz era was one of the first examples of youth counter-culture, and rebellion! Before the 1920’s, teenagers did everything by the law, and followed their parents advice on everything. The 1920’s saw the first instances of recreational drugs, and music influencing the way things were done. Women cut their hair short and began openly smoking and drinking, and listening to Jazz.Many Jazz musicians in Harlem used Heroin, Cocaine, Marijuana, and drank excessive amounts of alcohol before performing. When paired with the suggestive dancing seen in a typical Jazz venue, the negative connotations created a subculture that parents, and churches demonized, claiming it was the music of Satan!

Films and Movies in the roaring twenties

• The growth of Canadian nationalism around the First World War promoted Canadian production and other aspects of the industry.
• At the beginning of the decade, silent films used to exaggerate actions and they were colorless. It had a low price. And it was for all social classes.
• In 1922 The Canadian Motion Picture Distributors Association (CMPDA) was formed. Although Canadian in name, the association consisted of the Canadian offices of the American distribution majors and was in essence a branch of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors Association of America. For the purposes of calculating domestic gross revenue, American distributors have always included Canada in their bottom line. In 1923, American-born N.L. Nathanson, owner of the Toronto-based Famous Players Canadian Corporation (FPCC), a company in turn owned by Adolf Zukor's Paramount Pictures, bought all 53 of the Canadian-owned Allen Bros. theatres, making FPCC the largest owner in Canada. Then through his holding company, Zukor acquired direct control of FPCC.

• The most successful producer was Ernest SHIPMAN, who had already established his reputation as a promoter in the US when he returned to Canada in 1919 with his author/actress wife, Nell SHIPMAN, to produce Back to God's Country in Calgary.
• During the next 3 years Shipman established companies in several Canadian cities and made 6 more features based on Canadian novels and filmed not in studios, as was then common, but on location. Though these films - God's Crucible (1920), Cameron of the Royal Mounted (1921), The Man from Glengarry (1922) and The Rapids (1922) - were not as profitable as his first, they were not failures.
• In 1927, Warner released The Jazz Singer, the first sound feature to include limited talking sequences.

AviationOn the first World War, aviation suffered several changes and advances due to the fact that they were very important on the fight; On the twenties, this technology was used as a transportation method, first for mail but then for passengers. It was in this decade that the world saw aviation take it first steps through the commercial and international use, and also long distance flights such as the flight across the Atlantic that was performed in 1919 by Captain John Alcock and Lieutenant Arthur Whitten Brown, departing from newfoundland.

Changes in people’s livesThe biggest change aviation brought to the
Canadian society was the way it revolutionized mailing and people transportation; the mail could now go through the air, which was faster, and it was on this decade that the first airport with a waiting room and structure to receive passengers was established, making it possible to people to travel faster, which made intercontinental daily travels possible.

Canadian Military after WW1
Canada avoided overseas military commitments, either to Britain or the League of Nations. By the mid-1930s, the government began slowly to modernize and re-equip the armed forces. The defense of Canada’s seacoasts was its top priority.
![Page 93: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Canada Between the Wars
Throughout the 1920s and most of the 1930s, the Canadian governments kept military spending to a minimum. Many people believed that the First World War had been the ‘war to end all wars’. This view, combined with budgetary restraints, led Canada to reduce its military forces to fewer than 5000 full-time military personnel. For a time, the Royal Canadian Navy consisted of only two ocean-going ships.
![Page 94: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
Canada Between the Wars(continued)
The Royal Canadian Air Force, created in 1924, performed mainly civilian duties such as aerial mapping and forestry protection. There was little pay and even less equipment for part-time military reservists. During the economic catastrophe brought by the Great Depression of the 1930s, Canadians worried more about their jobs and families than the state of the armed forces. Without obvious enemies, the government decided not to spend scarce resources on the military.

1920-30s
ARCHITECTURESocial Studies 11 – Power point
James Letkeman -Block 7
1920's architecture was characterised by improved standards in residential homes, commercial buildings and also the proliferation of the skyscraper.
By the mid-1920s the post-war culture of the industrialized world had started a series of unified styles which affected design and architecture.
There was widespread interest in new sources of inspiration and architecture began to glorify new and/or enhanced technological marvels.
Designs were simplified; composition more geometric and there was a general trend towards abstraction.
![Page 96: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
CHANGING The face of ARCHITECTURE
The fallout of the First World War resulted in additional experimentation and ideas throughout the world
Skyscrapers became more common due to the development of steel, reinforced concrete, water pumps and most importantly the enhancements of the commercial elevator.
Large urban centers experimented with Art Deco and Modernism through their mass development of skyscrapers. These buildings were influenced by the changing culture of the society and were considered by many to be visual representations of expressions such as the modern jazz and music movement America was experiencing at the time.
![Page 97: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
EARLY 1920s in CANADA
Victorian styles of architecture dominated in Canada from the mid-nineteenth century up to the First World War.
After the First World War, Canadian nationalism encouraged attempts to create unique Canadian architecture, distinct from that of Britain and the United States.
While the United States embraced Art Deco, Canadian architects returned to the Middle Ages for inspiration
Gothic architecture had become closely associated with Canada A distinct Canadian style was the Château Style, also known as Railway Gothic. For public and commercial buildings, classical forms remained the style of choice .However, by the
1930s the classic styles were simplified almost to the point of abstraction
![Page 98: Ss11 bl 7_class_compilation 1920s presentation](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103114/5559a972d8b42aa4288b4ecd/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
MODERNIZING CANADIAN ARCHITECTURE
Toronto closely followed American cities such as Chicago and New York.
Toronto's influence on other Canadian cities meant that Western Canadian cities, particularly Vancouver, fallowed Toronto’s architectural path.
Modern homes of the 1920’s in America upgraded the standard of low cost housing and made other housing more affordable.
Houses were created to obtain beauty of design, functionality, practicality and convenience while considering the price.
The bungalow in British Columbia became widespread in local house design, and styles of housing such as Arts and crafts, and other distinctly western North America styles also became common.
