Japanese-Canadian Internment

Mladen Vidovic

During these times I think Japanese individuals in British Columbia Should be separated into internment camps due to many Canadians worrying about an attack from the Japanese because of the recent attack on Pearl Harbor. The first reason to put Japanese people into internment camps is because if Japan were to attack the British Columbian coast, there is a possibility that some may help the attackers because of their heritage and connection to where the attackers are from. Another reason to put Japanese people into internment camps is because many people are very scared of what the samurai do to the doctors and nurses and do not want to have any risk of the same thing happening near them, so to not cause major panic, I think it would be best to separate people with Japanese heritage into internment camps because it just separates people without any problems and reduces the public panic and risk.
