List of infantry battalions in the Canadian Expeditionary Force

During the First World War, the Canadian Army authorized the formation of 260 infantry battalions to serve in the Canadian Expeditionary Force. Only fifty-three of these battalions ever reached the front lines. The remaining battalions, most often upon arrival in England, were broken up and primarily absorbed into a reserve battalion. In addition to the numbered battalions, there were two named battalions. Several regiments of Canadian Mounted Rifles (mounted infantry) were converted to regular infantry battalions and served in the Canadian Corps.

Besides the infantry, there were other Canadian combat units in the CEF, including cavalry and mounted infantry regiments (in particular the Canadian Cavalry Brigade), artillery brigades, machine gun battalions such as the Canadian Automobile Machine Gun Brigade, the Canadian Corps Cyclist Battalion and tank battalions such as the 1st Canadian Tank Battalion and the 2nd Canadian Tank Battalion.

The infantry battalions in bold type served in the field.
