Project examines Japanese Canadian dispossession
Media release
The role played by the City of Vancouver in the dispossession of Japanese Canadians during the 1940s is now more clearly drawn, thanks to exhaustive work over the past two years by
one of the biggest research projects in the field of humanities in Canada.
A seven-year, multi-partner project led by UVic will explore the shameful history of dispossession during the 1940s will culminate in a cross-country museum exhibition in 2021. The
federal government announced a $2.5-million partnership grant Aug. 27.&
