History
In 1942, over 21,000 Japanese Canadians were unjustifiably removed from British Columbia’s coast. Over 300 men, women and children lived in East Lillooet, one of four internment camps in this region. They built 62 wooden shacks, a school and gardens. Their civil rights were finally restored in 1949.
