In Canada, they were interned at Hastings Park (where the Pacific National Exhibition is), because of a few reasons. Firstly, it was a chance for the population to get back at the Japanese (and Asian community), because the mentality of the public was that Canada should be a "white man's land", without any outside influences. In addition, they feared that the Japanese-Canadians would lead the Japanese submarines along the coast in their fishing-boats, and were secretly acting as spies.
Although this public hysteria was uncalled for, as determined by the RCMP and the government, the internment of the Japanese was demanded by the public. Many were sent to labour camps, else sent to the interior provinces, where they were far away from the coast. Their possessions were auctioned off, and they never were paid for the profit.
In England during World War I and World War II, children were evacuated to the country. They were moved out of the cities for their safety.
German Canadians were treated very badly.
Canadians of Japanese origin had their property confiscated and were sent to inland labour campsThe Canadian Japanese were interned in camps in British Columbia just as the American Japanese were interned. They did it at the same time as the Americans. I have added a related link for you so you can see photos, maps and read the story of their internment.
Japanese Canadians were considered enemy aliens during World War II due to their ethnic background, despite many being Canadian citizens. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, wartime paranoia led the Canadian government to view Japanese Canadians as potential threats, resulting in mass internment, dispossession of property, and forced relocation. This treatment was rooted in racism and fear rather than any substantiated evidence of disloyalty. Ultimately, many Japanese Canadians were unjustly treated as enemies based solely on their heritage.
They were first evacuated in world war two.

Evacuated to the countryside
Japanese Canadians were placed in internment camps during World War II primarily due to widespread fear and suspicion following Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. The Canadian government, influenced by wartime hysteria and racial prejudice, viewed Japanese Canadians as potential security threats, despite the majority being Canadian citizens. As a result, around 22,000 Japanese Canadians were forcibly removed from their homes, stripped of their property and businesses, and relocated to internment camps across the country. This action was later recognized as a violation of their rights, leading to formal apologies and reparations from the Canadian government in the 1980s.
