Institutionele geschiedenis
This committee which was set up in June 1943 was originally called the Cooperative Committee on Japanese-Canadian arrivals in Toronto and was concerned with the problems of evacuating large numbers of Japanese-Canadians from the West coast. The first members, mainly members of the YWCA and missionary societies, were joined by representatives from YMCA, Students' Christian Movement, the Fellowship of Reconciliation and some Toronto churches. Later on, the committee lobbied for the right of Japanese-Canadians to remain in Canada rather than being sent to Japan. By then it had grown in size, containing representatives from over forty Toronto and national groups.
