P. Grace Maclnnis Adds To Morely’s Vancouver Sun Story

to^* *

fter the recent article (N.C. Jan. 28) by Alan
fidley of the Vancouver Sun saying the Japanese
(SSiadian evacuation “cured a cancer”, one of the
letters of protest to the Sun came from the M.P. of
^M^ouver-Kingsway, Grace Maclnnis.
JAPANESE ORDEAL
itor, The Sun, Sir — Alan Morley’s Jan. 21 story
loOie wartime evacuation of the Japanese Canadians
from the West Coast impels me to make a few additions.
ed
^^eir Vancouver community was undoubtedly “a
aft
■ tight, self-contained body of people.” Dominance
y ;
>os
he older generation may have been partly res7
^gunsible. But it was due largely to economic prejudice
^®ist persons of Oriental origin.
ST

Professional bodies had regulations which barred
them from entry. They were effectively confined to
a few occupations where pay and prestige were low.
From the turn of the century, politicians (many of
whom were not Canadian-born) fanned this prejudice
into white heat at the onset of the Second World War.
It took courage and stamina on the part of a few
non-Oriental British Columbians and others to win
the long fight for the legal equality of these Cana­
dians of Japanese origin.
This courage was matched by the magnanimity of
the Japanese Canadians, One incident at the time of
the Fraser Valley flood of 1948 will illustrate what
1 mean:
Alan Morley refers to the forced sale — amount-

ing to confiscation — of Japanese farms and Boats
to greedy whites at absurdly small prices.”
Many of these farms, now occupied by others, were
among those ravaged by the flood. Their former own­
ers and other' Japanese Canadians in eastern Canada
to which they had been banished, put their slim savings
together and sent a cheque for $500 to the Fraser
Valley farmers.
During’ their ordeal of evacuation and exile, Cana­
dians of Japanese origin set a standard of citizenship
that made many of us proud bo be Canadians.
