W.R.Gares to A. E. McMaster, 26 January 1942
Would you kindly send me a list of the Jap vessels to be disposed of. I am interested
in a good troller, anything from four hundred to seven hundred dollars cash money.
Can you do this? Or would a person have to be down there to get any information on
the following:
Do you have to own property along the Fraser River to fish there? Does the trolling
up around the Queen Charlotte Islands, say at Sandspit on one of the most northerly
Islands start at the same time as down this way? If a person purchased a boat, would
the C.P.R. or Union boats going north, take it up, as I am not experienced enough
to take a boat up coast, or would that cost too much. I would appreciate hearing from
you.
Oblige,
W.R.Gares.

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.
