Two proposals for Parliament's apology to Japanese Canadians
OTTAWA — Reproduced below are two versions of a draft parlia­
mentary apology to Japanese Canadians for the internment and mis­
treatment afflicted them during and after the World War II. The first
was approved by the executive council of the National Association of
Japanese Canadians. The second is the final version prepared by the
Conservative government.
The Japanese Canadian-approved draft:
As people, Canadians commit themselves to the creation of a society that ensures
equality and justice for all regardless of cultural or racial origin.

There have been times throughout the history of Canada when Canadians from minority
cultural and racial communities have suffered injustice and discrimination. During and
after the Second World War, Canadians of Japanese origin, the majority of whom were
citizens, suffered unprecedented actions taken against their community.
Contrary to reasons stated at the time, the forced removal and incarceration of Ja­
panese Canadians during World War II had little basis in military necessity. In reality,
governmental policies of disenfranchisement > confiscation and unauthorized sale of private
property, and expulsion, deportation and restriction of movement which continued after the
war, were fuelled by discriminatory attitudes and motivated by political considerations.
Rather than protecting her citizens against racism, Canada incarcerated those who were

TORONTO — St. Clair Seconday School Drama Club of
Sarnia, Ontario will present a one-hour dramatization of
Shizue Takashima's book “A Child in Prison Camp” on
Friday, May 31st at the JCC Cultural Centre. At the comple­
tion of the performance the author will add her personal
reflections and she will lead a discussion on those years
of anguish and its implication of that period in Canadian
history.
“A Child in Prison Camp” is a moving account of the
evacuation and internment of Japanese Canadians in the
1940's. Takashima's book has won international acclaim
and has been considered by many as the turning point in
the conscience of the Canadian public.
The book was adapted for the stage by Frank Casey. In
a recent Sear 's Collegiate Drama Festival, the play receiv­
ed a-special Adjudicator's Award for “excellence in the
use of the dramatic form as a vehicle to effect social
change.”
Those who cannot attend the evening performance are
invited to the Dress Rehearsal at 4:00 p.m.
A collection will be taken at the door to help defray the
group's travelling expenses.

golfers big business, says Nisei |
the bill for such a celebration
can run as high as $10,000.
“The greater the status of
the individual, the more cost­
ly their gifts are expected to
be,” said Alfie Kamitakahara
of Kami Insurance Agencies,
who has a black lighter with
gold lettering commemorating
a vague acquaintance' s hole­
in-one in Tokyo.
If you can afford to play
golf in Japan, you're expect­
ed to play by all the rules. To
join a golf club is expensive:
the top club in Tokyo passes
memberships by inheritance
but, if you were lucky enough
to buy a membership, it
would cost about half a mil­
lion dollars. That's just to
join the club; playing a round
of golf costs from $100 to
$150 a time.
In the past, one needed to
be well-connected socially as
well as rich to become a golf
club member, said Kamitaka­
hara. These days, merely be­
ing rich will allow you to teeoff and, as a result, clubs
have been infiltrated by less
honourable nouveau riche or
even underworld figures.
“Because of this new
breed of golfers, hole-in-one
insurance losses have been
horrendous in the past few

years and it is getting increasingly difficult for Japanese
agents to
place
the
business,” said Kamitakahara
who celebrated the 25th anni­
versary of his agency this
past December.

Born and raised in Vancou­

The acknowledgement of such in­

fins which are among the
largest ever found in this
country, have been confirm­
ed. Bronze untensils, hal­
berds, beads and other
bronze untensils were found
in six of the graves, the ed­
ucation board said.
Archaeologists estimate
that the earthenware coffins,
measuring 1.8 meters long
and 1 meter wide, were made
in the early Yayoi Period in
the first century B.C.
