Description

Notices of sale slowly reached Japanese Canadians in internment.

One man burst into tears when he learned his boat had been sold. Another tore up his cheque, vowing to never use the money.

Japanese Canadians replied to officials with outrage, sorrow, and downright refusal. The Office of the Custodian filed their letters, but continued to sell their belongings.

Explore a selection of these letters to learn how Japanese Canadians argued against the sale of their homes and belongings.
