Japanese Canadian Internment Paragraph Assignment
By Kieran McGivern
I don’t support the idea of putting Japanese Canadians into the internment camps. I don’t believe they should be put there just because they are the same race as the Japanese who attacked pearl harbor. These are normal, kind people that are being brought to the camps without any proper evidence to be taken away or deported. Another reason why I don’t support these interment camps is because the lack of people will cause the economy to struggle. Less people to work means less money flowing through the community’s economy. I believe these camps are a mistake and are only going to worsen the situations we are currently facing.
