Millicent, Alta. Feb. 19th, 1942.
Dear Sir:
I read in a paper where I could get information for buying fish boats. I would appreciate it very much if you would send me information by mail, about the prices and size of boats you have on hand and also when the fish season opens. Send me the name of an owner of a boat that is willing to sell.
Thanking you.
Write as soon as possible.
Yours truly,
Mr. Fred Cyr,
Millicent,
Alta.

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.
