Canada To Deport Japanese Who Cannot Prove Legal Entry
Canada's recent decision to register all Japanese residents in the Dominion is expected to go far toward solving controversies over the status of the Japanese in Canada, 92 per cent. of whom reside in British Columbia, says a message from Van-
couver.
While Japanese were required to participate in the general registration some months ago, they were not talled upon to state whether or not they entered Canada legally. The new registra- tion will determine this point, giving to bona-fide Japanese residents the protection to which they are entitled by law. Thong unable to prove legal entry are to be deported.
Kenji Nakauchi, Japanese) Consul in Vancouver, welcomed the new registration. He said it was just what he expected from the Canadian authorities. Other Japanese voiced criticism of the Ottawa order exempting all Japanese from serving in Canada's fighting forces.
