What were theJapanese American internment camp conditions like?

Answer 1

Even though the Japanese-Canadians had every right in Canada, the Canadians just decided on the color of their skin and sent them to interment camps. The Japanese were considered "enemy aliens."
This actually preceded the acts of the US in February 1942, which interned most of the Japanese-American citizens who lived on the US west coast.
Canada had already declared war on Germany in 1939.

Answer 3

The treatment at Japanese Internment Camps was problematic the treatment was. Japanese individuals were carted away from their homes, their belongings, and their livelihoods. They were treated as you would treat a person with a deadly communicable disease and placed in "quarantined places".

Once the Japanese arrived at the camps, they were fed enough for them to survive but not enough to be satisfied, that they lived in deteriorating barracks, and their lives were regimented. It was as if they were criminal prisoners.

Answer 4

When the Japanese bombed pearl Harbor, The government of defence saw all of the Japanese Canadians as a threat to the country. They were forced to go to internment camps with one bag a person. In addition, all of their property was sold immediately and were sent without having a fair trail with a judge or a jury.

Other facts: What was surprising to me the most is that during the bombing, the Japanese were having cordial talks in Washington! (to talk about having a peace treaty)

They were also not allowed to move anywhere in the country vote in a election or run for an elected position such as a member of Parliament.

When all of their possessions where sold, the money was sent into creating the internment camps!!
