When the Japanese Canadians were sent to the internment camps, their property was sold by the government of Canada in order to fund the internment. After the war, most of the Japanese Canadians had nothing to return to in B.C. so they started a new life in other provinces.

How did the attack of Pearl Harbor affect Canada?

Canada declared war almost immediately. It was already committed to defense of the Pacific because of the deployment of two Canadian infantry battalions to the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong. Those battalions, the first Canadians to see land action in World War II, were destroyed when the Japanese took Hong Kong. I wrote an article on it for World War II History magazine. That was also the only land battle Canadian troops fought against the Japanese. Canada also moved to intern Japanese-Canadians during the war. During WWII, Pearl Harbour had an immense effect on Canada. Around 1,352 Canadian men lost their lives here, and many others were injured.

How did the U S government policy of internment affect thousands of Japanese Americans on the west coast of the US?

The U.S. government policy of internment during World War II forcibly relocated and incarcerated approximately 120,000 Japanese Americans, primarily from the West Coast, in camps under the guise of national security. This led to significant loss of property, businesses, and personal freedoms, as families were uprooted and stripped of their rights without due process. The internment caused lasting trauma and discrimination, severely impacting the Japanese American community and contributing to a legacy of injustice that is still acknowledged today. In 1988, the U.S. government formally apologized and provided reparations to surviving internees.
