Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
During the Great Depression and World War II, the active recruitment of new immigrants to Canada ended for all groups except those from Britain and the United States. Canada wanted to maintain strong ties with its European allies, so immigrants from those countries were still encouraged to come. However, immigration from other countries was severely restricted during this time.
