WIXXH'EG. MAN., AUGUST 3, 1946
Applying for Naturalization
The last in the series of six articles on Canadian citizenship by
Judge Walter J. Lindal appears on this page. These articles furnish
the background and factual information on the Canadian Citizenship
Act which is invaluable in understanding the meaning and value of
our citizenship duties and rights.
While the Act is of great importance to all Canadians, it will be
regarded with special interest by Japanese nationals in Canada who
wish to become Canadian citizens, but who have not yet applied for
naturalization papers or whose previous applications have been turned
down.
Until the new Act goes into effect at the beginning of next yeai\,
regulations regarding naturalization are governed by the Naturaliza
tion Act of 1914. The new Act introduces several changes and new
measures, the more important of which will be dealt with here.
Since the latter part of the 1920's, numerous eases are reported of
Japanese nationals who had made applications for naturalization, but
whose applications had been refused without explanation. This led to
a belief that the government was not allowing any more Japanese
nationals to take out naturalization papers, and discouraged others
from making applications. The probable explanation for the failure
to receive naturalization papers was the fact that under the Naturaliza
tion Act. the Secretary of State can actually exercise absolute dis
cretion to grant or refuse naturalization, even though the applicant
had been approved by the court. Under the new Act, however, the
authority of the minister is limited to ordering a rehearing in cases
where he deems the qualifications of the applicant to be in doubt;
and the final decision on the rehearing rests with the court.
Another innovation in the new Act is a provision that a. twenty
years' continuous residence in Canada may take the place of the
“adequate knowledge of the English or French language" required of
the applicant. This change was introduced with special reference to
immigrants, mostly from central European countries, who had given
long years of service to Canada but who, for various reasons, did not
acquire the necessary language knowledge to qualify them for Cana-,
dian citizenship. The fact that they could, not become naturalized had
barred them from enjoying the privileges of a Canadian citizen—a
practical example of which is the righuto qualify for old age pension.
In addition, the new Act provides that an applicant must make a
declaration of his intention to become a Canadian citizen at least one
year before he applies for his papers. This provision, however, is not.
a new one; it. was introduced in 1942 by an order-in-council.
The Citizenship Act tightens up generally the personal qualifications
•of the applicant. Not only must he be "of good character."’ but he
must also satisfy the court that he has an "adequate knowledge of the
responsibilities and privileges of Canadian citizenship." Some organi
zations have already started studies in citizenship, and it is reported
that the government will make available suitable information on
• citizenship for the benefit of prospective applicants.
Judging trom inquiries received by The New Canadian, one question
in the minds of .Japanese nationals today is how soon they will qualify
for naturalization. Whether it was the policy of the government to
bar persons of Japanese race from naturalization before the Avar is
not clear, but it appears that such a policy was in effect during the
war. This policy may even be continued until the settlement of the
repatriation question, or until the Citizenship Act comes into effect
next year. According to a local court official, however, there is no
restriction nowNgainst persons of any race filing their declaration of
intention to become Canadian citizens. The only stipulation is the
payment of a five-dollar fee. Thus a Japanese national in Canada who
makes his declaration today should qualify to apply for his papers
one year from now. Then, if his qualifications are satisfactory, there
seems to be no reason why he cannot become what lie wishes to be
—a Canadian citizen.

The Canadian Citizenship Act Sec. 10 (1)
Subsection 1. Section 10 of the
Canadian Citizenship Act deals
with the granting of citizenship
certificates to aliens. The text
of the subsection follows:
The Minister t Secretary of
State! may grant a certificate of
Canadian citizenship to any per
son who is not a Canadian citizen,
and who makes application for
that purpose and satisfies the
court that: —

THE DUAL STATUS AND
THE WIDER LOYALTIES
By Judge Walter J. Lindal
T h e third
article in the
series
dealt
with the dual
status of a
citizen of
Canada. He is
a
Canadian
citizen and at
the same time
a British subject.
The import of this twofold posi
tion of Canadians is most signifi
cant. perhaps more so than con
templated by the framers of the
Act. In one respect it is some
thing new. Residents of Canada,
who can qualify, are by statute
given two types of citizenship. Yet
from another point of view it is
not new. It is merely the official
recognition of what has been
gradually developing with the
growth of Canada into an autono
mous state. This spontaneous de
velopment and its statutory recog
nition is much more important
than the civil standing, be it two
fold or manifold, which the Par
liament of Canada, in the exercise
of sovereign power, has seen fit
to bestow upon the citizens of this
country.
.^
It cannot be emphasized too
strongly that this is something
which springs from within and is
not superimposed by legislative
enactment. That is what gives it
power and strength. Two loyalties
have emerged: at times they seem
distinct, and conflicting; at times
they are as the confluence of two
streams, they seem to merge in a
common wider fidelity.
There need not be a conflict"of
loyalties. People who have come
to Canada from other countries
have, since coming here, been in
continuous training in the adjust
ing and blending of loyalties.
Affection for the land of origin
may wane as affection for the land
of adoption expands, but loyalties
to abiding values need not suffer.
Even in the case of Canadian citi
zens who trace their ancestry to
Britain or to France sentiment
may centre around their respec
tive cultures rather than around
that, which is shared by both in a
common native land. All of this
is bound to cause conflicts and
create discord rather than unity.
To lessen these conflicts, to
strengthen common loyalties and
to harmonize others, though dif
ferent. may yet add strength and
vitality to each other and there
fore to the whole, is one of the
major problems confronting the
people of Canada.
But this is not an exclusively
Canadian problem although it pre
sents itself more clearly and in
bolder relief here than in most,
other countries. It is essentially
a world problem which the two
world wars have forced into the
open. It is a problem that exists
everywhere, from the small nation
to the world powers. And as
<d) he is of good character:
(el he has an adequate knowl
edge of either the English or the
French language, or. if he has not
such an adequate knowledge, he
has resided continuously in Can
ada for more than 20 years:
<f) he has an adequate knowl
edge of the responsibilities and
privileges of Canadian citizen
ship: and that
<g) he intends, if his applica
tion is granted, either to reside
permanently in Canada or to enter
or continue in the public service
of Canada or of a province there
ox-
thinking plays its role in the
moulding of public opinion and it
is public opinion which ultimately
will pave the way for a solution,
it confronts the little man on the
street corner as well as the world
statesman.
The gravaman of the problem is
the need of the enlarging of loyal
ties.
Here the world loyalty is given
a much wider meaning than
loyalty to constituted authority
which consists in being faithful
and true to the lawful government
of a country. Even that loyalty
may have an enlarged meaning
and embrace sentiment and affec
tion. Richard C. Trench, in speak
ing of British loyalty says:
“Loyalty expresses that fidelity
which one owes according to law,
and does not necessarily include
that attachment to the royal per
son which we in England have
been able further to. throw into the
word." In its wider connotation
the word loyalty means "being
true to obligations of duty, plight
ed troth, etc." (Oxford Diction
ary), or "fidelity to duty, love,
etc." (Webster).
There, of course, is and must be
loyalty to moral and spiritual prin
ciples and values. That subject is
left to those that are competent
to deal with it. This article is
limited to loyalties in the civil
aspects of human thought and ac
tion. Today, as never before, the
loyalties needed of the citizen are
many and varied; they call for a.
breadth of vision which extends
beyond national boundaries, a tol
erance to a degree which few may
yet fully grasp and comprehend.
There are two first, loyalties:
that of the individual to his home,
his family and his nearest of kin;
and the loyalty of the citizen or
the subject to his country, whether
he is such by birth or naturaliza
tion. Leaving aside the preferred
position given these two primary
loyalties 'nothing is gained in mak
ing comparisons or attempting to
place loyalties on higher and lower
planes. Some may reach out fur
ther than others but lack inten
sity. Some may give rise to strong
affection: others may be the result
of cold reasoning.
Civic loyalties are as ancient asman himself.
In the gradual
growth and development of civili
zation they have multiplied and
expanded. At first there was fidel
ity to the head of the family. Then
it became tribal, the member had
to be faithful to the tribe or clan.
Kingship developed and loyalty to
the king was fastened upon as a
means to dictatorship. The history
of the civil side of the evolution
of human institutions is a history
of the struggle between autarchic
power on the one hand and the
rights of the common man on the
other. '
Today, loyalties, have the same
beginnings as in ancient times.
They start with the individual in
his immediate surroundings. But
in this shrinking world they have
expanded to global dimensions.
For that reason what is in a
special sense true of the citizen of
Canada is in a general way true
of the citizens of all countries.
Exposition, by way of illustration,
of the theme of this article may
therefore be limited to the Cana
dian scene.
The resident of Manitoba has a
loyalty to his home, his school and
his church: he has a duty to per
form in community service. This
loyalty expands into the lareer
field. He is a Canadian
>eexs to lessen the te^A

a Canadian, a Greek or a Belgian
The wider the outlook the mue
adjusting has to be done in cr
thinking. From that point of vis
and in that sense it is more cir
cuit to be a British subject the
a Canadian citizen.
His country is a democracy He
believes in the fundamentals cf
true democracy based not on’y
upon the four freedoms. Im
equally as well upon the right oi
the individual citizen, freely and
secretly to make known by the
ballot the type of government he
wants and who is to do the gov
erning. Here is a loyalty that is
broader still: a loyalty to some
thing which is deeply rooted in
the hearts of men and cannot be
eradicated. There is an innate
feeling to live the democratic way
which can be found among people
of all colors, creeds and tongues.
Then there is the widest loyjy
of all: loyalty to humanity. Cm
preachers and philosophers have
spoken of it but their words have
soon been forgotten. In a most
cruel and devastating way the two
wars have forced this final loyalty
upon mankind. We are human be
ings living in a world which the
genius of man has made both smad
and dangerous. We can no longer
be choosers. We have to live wim
the other nations of the world and
create within ourselves a coLective world loyalty. As all man
kind. with its conflicts of ideolc
gies and creeds, its potentialities
for both good and evil, is wnhu
that loyalty, it may be cold and
distant, created rather than
of the mind rather than Oi dheart. But this loyalty must
a. place in our thoughts
actions.

WIXXH'EG. MAN., AUGUST 3, 1946
Applying for Naturalization
The last in the series of six articles on Canadian citizenship by
Judge Walter J. Lindal appears on this page. These articles furnish
the background and factual information on the Canadian Citizenship
Act which is invaluable in understanding the meaning and value of
our citizenship duties and rights.
While the Act is of great importance to all Canadians, it will be
regarded with special interest by Japanese nationals in Canada who
wish to become Canadian citizens, but who have not yet applied for
naturalization papers or whose previous applications have been turned
down.
Until the new Act goes into effect at the beginning of next yeai\,
regulations regarding naturalization are governed by the Naturaliza
tion Act of 1914. The new Act introduces several changes and new
measures, the more important of which will be dealt with here.
Since the latter part of the 1920's, numerous eases are reported of
Japanese nationals who had made applications for naturalization, but
whose applications had been refused without explanation. This led to
a belief that the government was not allowing any more Japanese
nationals to take out naturalization papers, and discouraged others
from making applications. The probable explanation for the failure
to receive naturalization papers was the fact that under the Naturaliza
tion Act. the Secretary of State can actually exercise absolute dis
cretion to grant or refuse naturalization, even though the applicant
had been approved by the court. Under the new Act, however, the
authority of the minister is limited to ordering a rehearing in cases
where he deems the qualifications of the applicant to be in doubt;
and the final decision on the rehearing rests with the court.
Another innovation in the new Act is a provision that a. twenty
years' continuous residence in Canada may take the place of the
“adequate knowledge of the English or French language" required of
the applicant. This change was introduced with special reference to
immigrants, mostly from central European countries, who had given
long years of service to Canada but who, for various reasons, did not
acquire the necessary language knowledge to qualify them for Cana-,
dian citizenship. The fact that they could, not become naturalized had
barred them from enjoying the privileges of a Canadian citizen—a
practical example of which is the righuto qualify for old age pension.
In addition, the new Act provides that an applicant must make a
declaration of his intention to become a Canadian citizen at least one
year before he applies for his papers. This provision, however, is not.
a new one; it. was introduced in 1942 by an order-in-council.
The Citizenship Act tightens up generally the personal qualifications
•of the applicant. Not only must he be "of good character."’ but he
must also satisfy the court that he has an "adequate knowledge of the
responsibilities and privileges of Canadian citizenship." Some organi
zations have already started studies in citizenship, and it is reported
that the government will make available suitable information on
• citizenship for the benefit of prospective applicants.
Judging trom inquiries received by The New Canadian, one question
in the minds of .Japanese nationals today is how soon they will qualify
for naturalization. Whether it was the policy of the government to
bar persons of Japanese race from naturalization before the Avar is
not clear, but it appears that such a policy was in effect during the
war. This policy may even be continued until the settlement of the
repatriation question, or until the Citizenship Act comes into effect
next year. According to a local court official, however, there is no
restriction nowNgainst persons of any race filing their declaration of
intention to become Canadian citizens. The only stipulation is the
payment of a five-dollar fee. Thus a Japanese national in Canada who
makes his declaration today should qualify to apply for his papers
one year from now. Then, if his qualifications are satisfactory, there
seems to be no reason why he cannot become what lie wishes to be
—a Canadian citizen.

dealt
with the dual

citizen of
Canada. He is
a

L rarsreuness about him betrayed his

he is taking advantage of the gov

of Veterans’ Affairs to enroll in
the McGill University Conserva

Prior to his enlistment, he was

DEAR A.A.N.—
By Peg
Your reply to my "Defence of
Silly Modern Songs" perfectly
exemplified the holier-than-thou
attitude. Aly article was a weak
effort to assert, the right of we
uncultured to enjoy what we like
without the fear*of such a scorn
ful treatise on the technical su
periority of classical music com
pared with the modern. I bow to
your superior knowledge of music
and regret deeply that I am so
untutored in that field that 1 can
not. discuss technicalities with
you. I cannot tell a sonata from
a scherzo or a Stravinsky* from a
Copand so perhaps I should bow
out at this point.
Since my facetious approach to
the whole question seems to have
annoyed you, I shall phrase this
more seriously. First. I am sure
that you will agree with me that,
music, as any* other art. is meant
primarily to give enjoyment to
listeners.
“Melodic lines with
good curves" is just a means to
this end. Secondly, you will agree
again that it requires training to
appreciate classics fully. People
who are not accustomed .to it
usually* become fidgety part way
through a symphony. I am not
belittling musical education but.
only* showing the inconsistency
between your zealous champion
ing of your carefully developed
art and your attitude towards
those who cannot grasp instantly
what took you years to acquire.
A scientist does not. expect a lay
man to understand the intricate
formulae. A musician dedicates
his life as assiduously* to his art
as the scientist to his test tubes
so he must have as profound a
learning. Yet he scorns the lay
man for not "equalling" his knowl
edge by appreciating a difficult
piece of music. By such an atti
tude is the musician not detract
ing from the respect given to the
study of music?
The classicist forgets that his
taste is an acquired one, usually*
from an advantageous childhood.
Not everyone has had these oppor
tunities. These “uncultured" must
rely upon the pleasure they de
rive from listening to a piece to
form their judgment. I like Chop
in not because I discern a techni
cal precision (I know* nothing of
music. I repeat.) but because his
pieces are lilting, sad. or fiery.
I do not care if Debussy is an im
pressionist, I like to dream in his
misty lands. I listen to both classi
cal and modern music with an
open heart because I like them,
not because they* are “classic" or
“modern." That is why* I respect
the right of others to rave about
Krupa’s drums or the blues of
the South. The taste for real jazz
is just as much an acquired one
as that for classics. And who can
positively say that one is better
than the other? The value of any
object lies partly in the subjected
individual. How will you convince
him that classical music is better
than modern, because it is tech
nically m»re precise or better?

BARBERS
By R.I.
THERE ARE BARBERS and
there are barbers. That is to say.
there are many species of bar
bers. falling into different cate
gories by skill, age. size, sex and
temperament. Before we go on.
however, it must be noted that the
female barber is not brought into
our sphere of consideration, for
she is too rare and unique to be
lightly tossed aside in this brief
work. What would apply to a
male barber would not necessarily
apply to a female barber. More
pointedly, perhaps, we must admit
that the only female barber we've
encountered so far has been a.
Japanese woman and she. in our
opinion, talked too much and to
make it more difficult, had no
business flouting a license which
proclaimed her as a qualified bar
ber . . . or is it barberess? Giving
the benefit of the doubt, however,
this should not be taken as an
altogether end-all on female bar
bers.
Japanese barbers formerly in
Vancouver, from our experience,
we found had much to learn about
their art. In every case, and we
repeat. ... in every case, we dis
covered that the first visit to a
Japanese barber resulted in a
humdinger of a cut, but later as
cur patronage became regular, the
standard of workmanship fell
prefers the downbeat to a "good
range and curves." then to him
the latter is not a valid reason
for the superiority* of the classic.
It just boils down to the fact that
he prefers the first and you the
second. Your scales of value are
different and in saying that classi
cal music is best because you and
many others consider it so, you
are being arbitrary.
Speaking of “lasting" music, do
you not think it is wrong to-con
demn a piece because it may not
become a classic? In any art only
time, will cull the classic from
the rubbish. Is it not enough that
a. few Tin Pan Alley songs have
survived twenty* years to justify
a crop of bad ones? The margin
between George Gershwin and
other modernists must be as
narrow as that between Bach and
his
contemporaries and
even
masters of the past have written
pieces popular then but no longer
heard now.
1 am pleading for more under
standing. Such a long letter on
such a matter may appear foolish
to some but the same outlook on
all phases of life seems to be
stratifying Nisei society.
The
ideal situation was that Nisei
society should not develop in the
post-evacuation era but they have
sprung up. Not only have they
congregated but they are attempt
ing to emulate other communities
by* setting up a caste system.
Educated Niseis regard their less
fortunate fellows contemptuously
as “ignorant." The “canaille" re
taliate by scorning the “upper
crust" and all its activities. Then
there are some who regard them
selves above others because their
parents were somebody in the pre
evacuation world. I heard a boy
complain that girls would not
"lower" themselves to go out witn
a dishwasher. AU this comes
about because these Niseis think
that they are right and no one
else is. Everything is right or
wrong with no shading in be
tween. What amazes me is that
these people who hold such ideas
are most vehement in their com
plaints of the “hakujin not under
standing us."
I agree. Massenet's “Medita
tion" is beautiful but I like “The
Gypsy" too, and if that shows a
lack of culture, I would rather be
