Mrs. K Yamaguchi to The Custodian's Office, 20 May 1947

Copy for Mr. Shears

Complaint

P. O. Box 398 Kaslo, B.C. May 20/47.

The Custodian's Office 506 Royal Bank Bldg. Hastings & Granville Vancouver, B.C. Dear Sir:

I received your cheque but I am sending it back because I do not need it for the time being.

You sold Lyton Hotel at only $125 that had cost me over $1100 and you sold the market rooms for only the price of the Automatic Gas Range Price that was about $500.00.

I am not satisfied with what you have done to my business.

Yours truly,

Mrs. K Yamaguchi

Roy S Yamaguchi

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.
