now, than ever before, to show your real
attitude towards Canada—-to show to your
critics that you are Canadians. It seems only
natural—-and fair—-to say to you that.,
owing to the apparent stand of Japan in
her relations with Germany, you are under
critical observation; this cannot be other
wise. Your school is under observation: this
cannot be otherwise. Nations at war must
know where their minority groups stand.
Here then is your opportunity to show us
all that your loyalty is with the land wherein
you make your home.
Loyalty is honesty.
Loyalty is the basis of good citizenship.
Loyalty is the first obligation of all citi
zens.
Loyalty is right of any country to ex
pect of its people.
Demonstrated loyalty warrants the rights
of citizenship. | believe that the basis of
citizenship will, at the close of this war,
be broadened—and I think it should.
FIRST, let me say that you as JapaneseCanadians are now in an extremely dif
ficult situation: I believe that is an equally
unfortunate situation. We as Canadians find
ourselves at war; not of our own making,
not of our own choosing; but nevertheless
at war. We believe that the cause for which
we stand is right. We are fighting for the
liberty of small nations, and minorities, and
you are a minority.
I believe you have a greater opportunity
T have stressed the matter of lovaltv for
i
obvious reasons.
I believe that the great contribution that
the second generation Japanese can make
to Canada's war effort is a declaration, or
demonstration, of their loyalty to Canada.
Conversely, I hold the firm conviction
that the most miserable of all people are
those who partake of the hospitality and
advantages of any country and use these
privileges for ulterior purpose.
Your principal, Mr. Sato, has discussed
with me the War Program at Strathcona
School. So far as actual school work is con
cerned, we are carrying on as usual. We
teach our language, our institutions, our
history and traditions; we teach toleration
for the rights of others; the contribution
of other peoples to our progress; we teach
loyalty to the land of our adoption.
We sponsor the voluntary sale of war
$
*
stamps. We collect supplies for the Red
Cross. We have Red Cross and First Aid
Clubs. We are putting on a Musical Pro
gram in about two weeks in aid of the War
Func.
There are trying times ahead. We need
the support ot all our citizens. I fee! sure
the Japanese community will make its
lovaltv and assistance certain and consider
ate. So far as possible your people- -should
sneak the Canadian language.
'THE question of dual nationality I, quite
— frankly, do not understand. I think that
the misunderstanding and lack of informa
tion that appears to exist about this matter
should be clarified—and you are the ones
who can do this. Especially important is this
in war time,’where Canada must know the
facts and be naturally suspicious, if the
facts are not forthcoming. You ask me the
duties of the second generation Japanese in
war time and I reply: "Clear up tnis ques
tion of dual nationality."
You ask me what you can do to clarify
vour position and I suggest—just the same
as for any other group of foreign nation
ality—that too great, direct, and protracted
contact with the land of your ancestors
must naturally create doubt and invite
criticism—especially in time of war.
/CIRCUMSTANCES over which CANADA
has had no control has us drawn into
war. Circumstance over which YOU have
no control have placed you in an extremely
awkward and unpleasant position. We must
work together to settle these difficulties in
the best interests of all of us.
We must work together for the protec
tion of the weak, the right to live in free
dom and safety; and out of all the misery
and suffering and sacrifice that lies ahead
may we emerge with greater freedom,
greater equality, and more lasting peace.
When normalcy and sanity return once more
to a troubled world, I trust that the liberty
of weak nations and the rights of minority
peoples will not only be maintained, but

t\pa of subject matter being taught in socalled German and Italian language schools
in this country has shown only too clearly
that it has been relatively easy, to date, to
teach iovalty to a foreign land, and dis
loyalty to Canada. This of course must, and
will, be stopped. In view of these condi
tions, and in view' also of the present atti
tude of Japan towards our Empire your
school should in my opinion, invite the
closest examination of your activities. If all

well—and 1 believe it is—then Canada has
no right to be suspicious of your program.
Canada should, and does, grant to all
peoples the right to teach their children the

right to teach lovaltv to a foreign land at

that vou agree with this statement, and my

that your program has nothing to fear from
such examination—and, further, it would

you have asked me to discuss todav, which,

I believe that the great contribution that
the second generation Japanese can make
to Canada's war effort is a declaration, or
demonstration, of their loyalty to Canada.
Conversely, I hold the firm conviction
that the most miserable of all people are
those who partake of the hospitality and
advantages of any country and use these
privileges for ulterior purpose.
Your principal, Mr. Sato, has discussed
with me the War Program at Strathcona
School. So far as actual school work is con
cerned, we are carrying on as usual. We
teach our language, our institutions, our
history and traditions; we teach toleration
for the rights of others; the contribution
of other peoples to our progress; we teach
loyalty to the land of our adoption.
We sponsor the voluntary sale of war
$
*
stamps. We collect supplies for the Red
Cross. We have Red Cross and First Aid
Clubs. We are putting on a Musical Pro
gram in about two weeks in aid of the War
Func.
There are trying times ahead. We need
the support ot all our citizens. I fee! sure
the Japanese community will make its
lovaltv and assistance certain and consider
ate. So far as possible your people- -should
sneak the Canadian language.
'THE question of dual nationality I, quite
— frankly, do not understand. I think that
the misunderstanding and lack of informa
tion that appears to exist about this matter
should be clarified—and you are the ones
who can do this. Especially important is this
in war time,’where Canada must know the
facts and be naturally suspicious, if the
facts are not forthcoming. You ask me the
duties of the second generation Japanese in
war time and I reply: "Clear up tnis ques
tion of dual nationality."
You ask me what you can do to clarify
vour position and I suggest—just the same
as for any other group of foreign nation
ality—that too great, direct, and protracted
contact with the land of your ancestors
must naturally create doubt and invite
criticism—especially in time of war.
/CIRCUMSTANCES over which CANADA
has had no control has us drawn into
war. Circumstance over which YOU have
no control have placed you in an extremely
awkward and unpleasant position. We must
work together to settle these difficulties in
the best interests of all of us.
We must work together for the protec
tion of the weak, the right to live in free
dom and safety; and out of all the misery
and suffering and sacrifice that lies ahead
may we emerge with greater freedom,
greater equality, and more lasting peace.
When normalcy and sanity return once more
to a troubled world, I trust that the liberty
of weak nations and the rights of minority
peoples will not only be maintained, but
MOW may 1 add a word concerning your increased.
To the graduates of Strathcona School I
school. Inasmuch as your Japanese lan
bring
greetings and an expressed wish that
guage school is free from official super
vision of any kind and in view of the im our friendly relations continue.
To the second generation Japanese Cana
portant role that your school plays in the
life of your people here, may I suggest that dians I express a firm faith in your loyalty
it would be a wise and timely act for you to Canadian institutions in these trouble
to request or invite government examina some times.
From all people of Japanese origin resid
tion of your entire school program.
This would stay any ill-founded suspicions ing in this country I urge support in thought,
that may be in the minds of uninformed, word, and deed, for the efforts Canada is
but sincere, people regarding the activities making in trying to restore to the world
of your school. Information that has re- peace, justice and freedom.

Bout-----------------------------
cently been brought to light relative to trie
t\pa of subject matter being taught in socalled German and Italian language schools
in this country has shown only too clearly
that it has been relatively easy, to date, to
teach iovalty to a foreign land, and dis
loyalty to Canada. This of course must, and
will, be stopped. In view of these condi
tions, and in view' also of the present atti
tude of Japan towards our Empire your
school should in my opinion, invite the
closest examination of your activities. If all
is not welt Canada should know it; if all is
well—and 1 believe it is—then Canada has
no right to be suspicious of your program.
Canada should, and does, grant to all
peoples the right to teach their children the
language, traditions, folk lore and history
of their ow-n home land. Canada should not
—and will nob---grant to anv peoples the
right to teach lovaltv to a foreign land at
the expense of loyalty to Canada. I am sure
that vou agree with this statement, and my
suggestion to you is based on my' belief
that your program has nothing to fear from
such examination—and, further, it would
be an added answer to the questioon that
you have asked me to discuss todav, which,
is, in effect, "What can the second genera
tion Japanese do to convince Canada that
they' are anxious to support Canada's war
effort."
