JAPANESE INTERNMENT AND THE BOMB The End of WWII

The apology Page 101-The 1988 Apology Based on the apology, what happened?

In the Beginning Emperor Hirohito – Part of the ‘Axis Powers’, along with Hitler and Mussolini Time of Japanese imperialism (expansion of their empire in the Pacific) Dec 1941 Attack Pearl Harbor and the colony of Hong Kong – Being defended by Canadian soldiers Now at war with Japan - Pacific

A Defensive Canada Canada feels vulnerable. A Japanese attack on Canadian soil is possible and feared Pre-existing racism towards Japanese Canadians is aggravated by a fear of an attack See- CSI- Page 92,

Canadians of Japanese Ancestry - General Japanese Canadians look different May speak a different language have different customs Live close to the coastline Work mostly in the fisheries Although many have been Canadian for generations they are feared, not trusted and suspected of possibly being spies Perceived as a threat by the public…but (page 94, evidence 4.4)

Japanese Internment Page 96 Feb 1942. Mackenzie King announced that all Japanese Canadians would be forcibly removed from within a hundred–mile swath of the Pacific coast To “safeguard the defences of the Pacific Coast of Canada.” They were uprooted from their homes, stripped of their property, and dispersed across Canada

Treatment of Canadian’s of Japanese Ancestry Striped of their rights / property / possessions Loose the right to vote Forbidden employment Forbidden to attend school Carry id cards Property and possessions (homes, cars, fishing boats) confiscated Property later sold at reduced rates to pay for their (Involuntary) internment

Japanese Canadians 22,000 people were taken from their homes and scattered throughout BC. The Canadian government set up 8 internment camps in interior BC Dreadful conditions – cold, lack of fresh water, poor nutrition, disease… After the war people were given a choice: to be scattered over eastern Canada or deported to Japan (10,000)
