Included in the file is correspondence concerning the issuance of fishing licences

the coast have been relaxed. J.A. Motherwell, Chief Supervisor of Fisheries, confirmed
that there had been no change in the department’s policy; “these operators are not
permitted to transfer from one area to another.” Also in this file is a list of Japanese
Canadian individuals and companies with fish-buyer licences, including post office
addresses.

Terminology
Readers of these historical materials will encounter derogatory references to Japanese
Canadians and euphemisms used to obscure the intent and impacts of the internment
and dispossession. While these are important realities of the history, the Landscapes
of Injustice Research Collective urges users to carefully consider their own terminological
choices in writing and speaking about this topic today as we confront past injustice.
