scheduled for 2:00 am on 3 June 1916. Due to the distances that had to be covered by incoming units, the difficulties in communications and ever present German artillery-fire, the time allowed for assembly proved inadequate and the attack was postponed until 7:00 am. The signal to attack was to be six simultaneous green rockets. Some rockets misfired and did not burst, leading to an unsynchronised attack. The four attacking battalions suffered many casualties as they advanced over open ground in broad daylight. The attackers failed to regain any lost territory but closed a 550 m (600 yd) gap in the line and advance the
Canadian front about 910 m (1,000 yd) from the positions it had retreated to after the German assault.

Due to the casualties suffered during the failed counterattack of 3 June, Currie regrouped his stronger battalions into two composite brigades. Four intense bombardments of thirty minutes each were carried out between 9 and 12 June to deceive the Germans into expecting immediate attacks, which did not transpire. For ten hours on 12 June all the German positions between Hill 60 and Sanctuary Wood were bombarded . Particular attention was given to the Canadian Corps flanks, from which enfilade machine-gun fire might be expected.

Canadian 28th (North West) Battalion was annihilated in the explosions. The Canadians managed to hold their position and prevent the Germans from reaching their support line but Byng decided to leave the Hooge trenches in German hands and to concentrate on regaining Mount Sorrel and Tor Top. To dissuade the Germans from more attacks on the left flank of the Canadian Corps, the dismounted British 2nd Cavalry Brigade came on loan to the Canadian Corps as a counter-attack force.

Germans fell back to their original lines and in a little over an hour the assault was over. On 14 June, the Germans launched two counterattacks which were repulsed, after which they advanced their trench to within 150 m (490 ft) of the Canadians but made no further assaults.
