Japanese Canadian internment camps varied in size, with some accommodating thousands of individuals. For example, the largest camp, located in Tashme, British Columbia, housed over 2,000 internees. Other camps, like those in Alberta and Manitoba, also contained significant numbers, but specific sizes could differ based on location and capacity. Overall, the internment system was extensive, affecting approximately 22,000 Japanese Canadians during World War II.

What was the significance of internment of Japanese Americans?

There are a number of interesting and disturbing factors. First, most of the Japanese-American internees were American citizens. Second, the internment was ordered by President Franklin Roosevelt, who was considered to be fairly progressive; he definitely wasn't one in this case. When the case went to the Supreme Court, the court upheld the internment. Third, there had not been any acts of sabotage or espionage by any of the internees. Fourth, the internment was only applied along the west coast of the US. There was no internment camps established in Hawaii, despite the fact that there were a great number of Japanese-Americans, and even Japanese citizens, living in Hawaii at the time. There was a unit of the US Army formed entirely from Japanese-Americans, and mostly recruited from the various internment camps. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team, Japanese-American soldiers serving under Caucasian officers, saw service in Europe and was the most highly decorated unit (for its size) in the European Theater. Members of the 442nd earned 21 Congressional Medals of Honor, and earned the nickname "Purple Heart Battalion"
