M II,

So tell us about the the wonderful treatment of Canadians
of Japanese Ancestry during WWII . . .

* Canada initially sent its Male Evacuees {Husbands, Father, and Sons}
to Road Camps (Forced Labor).

* About 95% of the nearly 23,000 people of Japanese descent who lived
in Canada, were naturalised or native-born citizens.Those unwilling to
live in Internment Camps faced the possibility of Deportation to Japan.

* Women and Children (Wives, Mothers, Daughters and Young Sons) where
separated from the Men and were moved to six Concentration Camps in the
interior of British Columbia.

* There, the living conditions were so poor that the citizens of
wartime Japan even sent Supplemental Food Shipments through the Red
Cross. During the period of Detention, the Canadian Government spent
one-third the per capita amount expended by the U.S. on Japanese
American evacuees.

* The Canadian Forced Deportation of the Canadian Citizens of Japanese
Descent was a Crime Against Humanity and that a Citizen could not be
Deported from Their Own Country of Birth.

Note - The Canadian-Japanese Citizens had their Property and Businesses
Confiscated and/or Sold.

And Yes - The USA's treatment of it's very own American-Japanese
Citizens was a Black-Mark in American History.
