Since Halifax began, it was a city of war, and the explosion brought about war damage to the new generation not only in Halifax but also in Canada. Halifax City assisted the naval base of the battle of Lewisburg in 1758 and became the main passage of the Napoleonic war between the Napoleonic war and the American Revolution. During World War I, Halifax Port was an important naval base for the delivery of soldiers and warships that provided the necessary distribution to Europe 1. On that cold winter morning, "Halifax paid the price of becoming the main port of war material export in Canada in two major wars." Mont Blanc is ready to ship to war, carries over 2,500 tons of benzoic acid fuel, TNT, bitter acid and cancer cotton. From the time Halifax became a war city for many years until the explosion, the war effect did not actually become a reality of this generation.
