This report was published by The Committee for the Survey of the Second Generation Japanese in British Columbia, the Canadian Japanese Association (329 Gore Avenue, Vancouver, B.C., 1935). The report made during summer 1935 by Japanese-Canadian students from the University of British Columbia, Wasada University (Tokyo, Japan), and the University of Alberta. It was conceived as a “follow-up” report of Regenda Sumida’s 1934 report on the Japanese in British Columbia. The report is predominantly statistical, with some explanatory content. Including the introduction, the report is 60 pages long. The sections are: Population statistics of “Second Generation Japanese in British Columbia”, educational, occupational, marital, and social conditions (the later including religious denominations, distribution of organizations, reading matter, musical attainments, special amusements, sports, social difficulty, contact with Japan, and stability).
