W E Anderson to Mr. Suyekichi Fujikawa, 19 July 1944
We are in receipt of your letter of July 4th, 1944.
Your remarks have been carefully read and we can appreciate that the disposal of your
property will be a matter of personal concern. However, the sale of properties to
the Director, The Veterans' Land Act was carried out as a part of a policy of liquidation
outlined by Ottawa on the basis of appraised values.
Your letter has been placed in our files so that your comments in regard to this sale
will remain on record but we can only advise you that we are unable to consider any
alternative in regard to this matter.
With reference to your Pacific Co-operative Union share certificates, the 1937 and 1938 shares are redeemable at this time. If you
would sign your certificates on the reverse side and forward them to this office we
will have them redeemed and the funds either credited to your account or forwarded
to you.

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.
