“The Commission has neither the legal power nor the moral
right to decide that Canadian-born citizens or naturalized citizens
are nationals of another country,” Mr. Mead said.
“It would require an Act of Parliament at Ottawa to attack this
basic principle of citizenship in our country,” he declared.
‘As far as evacuation is concerned, the regulations must apply to
all persons of the Japanese race,” he continued, “but it would be
stupid of us to make a statement as untrue as that.”
Lawyer for the“Nisei Mass Evacuation Group”, Eric R. Thomp
son laid Major Taylor that he had been retained by Mr. Tanaka,
Mr. Shimoda and a grocer on Denman Street to approach the
Commission. He had spoken, however, only to Commissioner John
Shirras.
,
j
Questioned by Major Taylor, Mr. Thompson admitted that he
had not been told that the second generation were Japanese na
tionals, but only that as far as evacuation went, the regulations
must be obeyed by everyone, nationals, naturalized, or Canadianborn alike.
