Dear Sir,
Will you please let me know as soon as you find out what the Government intends to
do with the Jap Fishing Boats as I would like to get a good sized Troller some of
my relatives have been fishing on the West Coast for years and I have done quite a
bit of it myself and intend to get a boat if possible by the time the season opens.
Sincerely yours
R.R. Gill

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.
