Surnames: Y
The names index can be browsed alphabetically by surname with names grouped by letter.
Some names are in Japanese Kanji characters and listed in the index under “JA.” If
an individual has both an English and a Japanese name, or if there are multiple spellings
for the same person, links are provided to connect these references. Some names may
have a biography and/or metadata, all name entries have links to the documents the
person appears in and shared surnames for cross-referencing purposes.

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.
