The Japanese Canadians who lived concentrated in the province of British Columbia were evacuated and relocated to the interior of the Province during World War II. At the same time, the Canadian Feredal Government had a plan to place these Japanese Canadians in the East. Following this policy, Japanese Canadians moved to the East of Canada, though the movement was slow. This process, which is called "resettlement, " was one of the most important elements that were to determine the social status of Japanese Canadians after WWII. The city which Japanese Canadians themselves felt most friendly was Montreal. The information that jobs were avail-able moved them to resettle there. Montreal attracted them, also, as they felt the people there were tolerant toward cultural, racial, or ethnic differences.Japanese Canadians in Montreal today seem to be incorporated in the society there, though they have not lost their identitiy as Japanese Canadians. If the government's policy of dispersal after WWII was aiming to create this kind of situation, Montreal is a good example of where the policy succeeded.
