■
I I have wondered how best to tell you about our present work
Ito create a Japanese Canadian Centre in Toronto. It has taken some
little courage and a great deal of faith on our part to bring- this
project to the present stage of realization.
i As a oroup of Canadian citizens, we desire very much to imple

fof some 7,000 Japanese Canadians living in greater Toronto, have
^already raised the sum of $300,000 towards the building of ie
‘Centre.
r
s
I The arts of Japan are well known. Y ou will find most of them
listed on the reverse side of the programme given to you. Perhaps
Rhe one best known is Japanese flower arrangement.
_
| There are many activities in the cultural field which can be
[carried out in the Centre. One of these activities which at present
|is rather indefinable, is to encourage and nurture the latent, aitis
Itic talents of the younger people. Such talents as are shown to you
ftonight by Miss Marjorie Pigott, a non-Japanese, whose work is
behalf of the Japanese Canadian
community.
Among the guests were, many
prominent business executives as
well as representatives of reli
gious, social, cultural and educa
tional groups.
FOR GREATER UNITY
Keynote of the speeches was
the idea that the Japanese Can
adian Centre would assist all citi
zens in obtaining knowledge of
the culture of Japan and would
bring citizens of different racial
origins into a great unity and un
derstanding of each other.
First to speak, George Tanaka
emphasized the cultural and citi
zenship functions inherent in the
idea of the Centre. Through the
Centre, the Japanese Canadians
can render the maximum contri
bution “to the aggregate pattern
and mosaic of Canadian modes of
living’,” he said. And by [provid
ing the means of "the active interprelation of the arts of Ja
pan”, the Centre can be “the ex
pressed manifestation of our
sense of Canadianism.” The lat
ter, he maintained, has been
strongly imbued in the Japanese
Canadians because of their past
experiences.
GOOD FOR ALL
Mayor Phillips, who is a hon
orary patron of the Centre,
brought the greetings of the peo
ple of Toronto. “The Centre”, he
said, "will not only be good for
the Japanese Canadians, but will
be good for Toronto and Canada.
It will be a Centre which will
bring everybody together. And I
know that in this city,all quali
ties of brotherhood exist.”
The Mayor seemed most im-

Among the guests were, many

FOR GREATER UNITY
Keynote of the speeches was
the idea that the Japanese Can

zens in obtaining knowledge of
the culture of Japan and would
bring citizens of different racial
origins into a great unity and un
derstanding of each other.
First to speak, George Tanaka
emphasized the cultural and citi

idea of the Centre. Through the
Centre, the Japanese Canadians
can render the maximum contri
bution “to the aggregate pattern
and mosaic of Canadian modes of
living’,” he said. And by [provid
ing the means of "the active interprelation of the arts of Ja
pan”, the Centre can be “the ex
pressed manifestation of our
sense of Canadianism.” The lat
ter, he maintained, has been
strongly imbued in the Japanese
Canadians because of their past
experiences.
GOOD FOR ALL
Mayor Phillips, who is a hon
orary patron of the Centre,
brought the greetings of the peo
ple of Toronto. “The Centre”, he
said, "will not only be good for
the Japanese Canadians, but will
be good for Toronto and Canada.
It will be a Centre which will
bring everybody together. And I
know that in this city,all quali
ties of brotherhood exist.”
