Apart {torn ihe fact of evac* Cation itself, perhaps the stiict racial basis of Canfctla'a wartime treatment of its minority of Jap-�iWse" origin ia inoxt sharply de-ftned by the rigoroiu Curtailment of their, freedom to move about. Totally curtailed early in 1942, this freedom has been wfd^ned since, but oulv with a slo\yno>ss painful7 in an allegedly deniomtk' tjountry. And the restrictions nt
- tne present twno are far-reaching,
Certain areas are described as �prohibited, n\\(\ no one of Japanese descent muy �0 into those ',\'it''OUt �a special poimlt. In British Columbia, travel anywhere beyond a 50-nn'l^ limit-'is .prohibited without a special permit. Klsewheie, in tho country, a similar' dispejisytion is required for .the * crossing of a provincial boundary. And in. all cases, limit tit ions ?ie imposed upon the length of time one nnv travel. In continst, among persons of German descent, only MOM -citizens are excluded from the prohibited areas, ai'd even these arc free to tiavcl vhen, wlicie and as they will elsewhere in the
- country.
Under the existing set-ii{\ moreover, \vh it freedom there is a very fragile- thing. The regulations can be -easily changed about by higher officials. And the administration of "the regulations is- too easily subject to ihe whims an-1 fancies of a grnat number of minor officials. Finther, this control over movement is the device ... used by the placement machinery of the - Ciovevnment to channelize the'/ movenicnt of evacuees' .from Britislv ColumbiaVlo other parts of "�Canada, Administered: with discretion,' such''/control' may be. desir-able. :But the .experience Irus
individuals across the country is once established! we shall ha\e taken.^ a long step backwards in our cffoits to build a Canadian
