SEPTEMBER 2022 VOL. 48 ISSUE 9SPECIAL MESSAGE

JCCC Board Transition
Dear JCCC members
Personally, it has been a privilege and joy to have served on the JCCC Board for 30
years since 1992, with the most recent 13 years as President. The Annual General Meetingat the end of September will be my last event on the Board as I hand over the reins to a
successor that will become official in October. This has been in the works for a few years
now but the challenges of the JCCC over the last couple of years has delayed this transition.
Special thanks to Sid Ikeda for convincing me to join the Board so many years ago.
The most amazing aspect of my JCCC relationship has been the opportunity to meetthe membership and so many people in the broader community, including domestic andJapanese business and government leaders. Special thanks to all the wonderful staff andvolunteer Board and committee members that I have had the privilege of working withover the years. The JCCC is powered by 1,100 volunteers, and I am humbled that so manyof them have dedicated themselves for decades longer than me.
Two people that I have come to know well over my JCCC years both happen to bearchitects, and they have made a lasting contribution to the success of the JCCC. Thankyou, Raymond Moriyama, for creating the original JCCC at 123 Wynford and for yourcontinued amazing support of the Moriyama Nikkei Heritage Centre. Bruce Kuwabara and his colleagues at KPMB (Shirley Blumberg and Bob Simms) designed our current JCCC at 6 Garamond Court and their vision created the wonderful
facilities that we have today.
This truly is the gift of volunteerism when you connect to so many people that would not otherwise have entered your life.
Much has been accomplished over the past thirty years and I can only see a bright future for the JCCC given the spirit
and talent of this amazing community. It has been a lot of fun.
Thank you.
Gary Kawaguchi

Japanese poetry rapper Haru Nemuri is
Coming to Toronto!
The JCCC is very excited to co-present a performance by Japanese poetry rapper Haru Nemuri at Toronto's Lee's Palaceon October 2nd. Presented by MODO-LIVE, Programme & Wavelength.
Japanese singer/songwriter, poetry rapper and composer Haru Nemuri is bringing her Shunka Ryougen North America

overseas, including Anthony Fantano’s The Needle Drop, and has over 10 million streams.
Haru has performed in festivals overseas including Primavera Sound, and various other large music festivals in Malaysia

If it can be a show like that, I’d be really happy to see it. I’d like to let all of that out on stage.”This is the Japanese pop music of a new generation, and her spirit is Rock and Roll. Don’t miss her incredible set. Tickets

Shiseido to Beautify the JCCC With More
Sakura Blossoms!
In honor of Shiseido’s 150th Anniversary, Honoring
the Earth looks a little different. Shiseido Canada “The
Beauty of Helping Others” is proud to partner withJapanese Canadian Cultural Center by planting cherry
blossom trees. Through their corporate social impact
initiative “The Beauty of Helping Others,” Shiseido’s
employees will help beautify the Centre grounds byplanting 75 cherry blossom trees on JCCC premises
and surroundings and give back to the community
in which they live and work. The first 35 trees will beplanted in September 2022 with the remaining trees
in the Spring of 2023.

Help Keep Our
Sakura Blooming!
The new Sakura planting will mean that our community and friends will be able to enjoy the beautiful
blossoms and hanami viewing parties for generations
to come. An essential tool for keeping these trees
healthy is a proper irrigation/sprinkler system andwe are currently working to raise the funds needed
for its purchase and installation. Shiseido is hoping
to kick-start this fund raising with a contribution of
its own.
We hope you’ll consider helping us out with a donation. If this appeals to you, please send a chequeor go to our website and be sure to mention the“Sakura Project”.
Thank you for your support and generosity. Seeyou under the Sakura!

MARTIAL ARTS CORNERJCCC Judo Kai brothers win medals for Canada at the
Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games
Brothers Mohab and Shady El Nahas represented Canada at the recent
Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England, with each brother adding
to Canada’s medal haul.

Mohab

A 7-time national champion and international competitor in the -90kg
category, 26-year-old Mohab El Nahas decided to adjust and is now aiming
to climb the national and international rankings to qualify for the 2024
Olympics in the -81kg category. In March, he had a great tournament
winning the Prague European Open, but then suffered injury setbacks including a broken finger in May, and rib in July. It was a last-minute decision
by Judo Canada and Mohab for him to compete at the CommonwealthGames, and he came through with a stellar performance to win the bronze
medal. Social media sites were abuzz with images of some of his spectacular throws enroute to the podium. He had a tough loss in the semi-finals
to the eventual gold medal winner from England, but Mohab recovered
for a big win in the bronze medal match. An outstanding performance by
Mohab as he strives for the top!

Shady

Shady El Nahas put in a workmanlike performance to win gold in the
men’s -100kg category, as his competition were very defensive against him
as the number one seeded competitor at this tournament. At only 24-yearsof age, Shady adds the Commonwealth Games championship to his resume
which already includes 10 national championships, 3 Pan-American championships, 9 medals on the International Judo Federation World Tour (thehighest level of competition for judoka), 5th place at Junior and Senior WorldChampionships, and 5th place at the Tokyo Olympics. Currently ranked #4
in the World in the Men’s -100kg category, next up for Shady is the WorldChampionships in October in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, as he works towards
Gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics!

HERITAGE

Algorithms of Innocence is now open!
On the summer evening of August 12, 2022, the JCCC Gallery hosted an opening reception for Algorithms of Innocence,a solo exhibition by artist Maari Sugawara. The evening kicked off with curatorial remarks by Kathy Yamashita followed
up by opening statement by Maari, “The desire to reassert agency, to encourage imaginings of women-defined future(s),at the end, is what underlines all the works in Algorithms of Innocence. This show seeks to encourage imaginings of women-defined future(s), future(s) where women survive Japan’s natural disasters and Japan’s Imperialist past and present,
rather than submitting to the country’s continued violence.”
We invite you to experience Algorithms of Innocence in its entirety at the JCCC Gallery. The exhibit is available forviewing until October 16, 2022.

Sedai Corner“You have a very proud story to tell.”(Judge Albert Wong, 2022)
On the afternoon of July 4, 2022, the Sedai Project at
the JCCC had the privilege of inviting Frank Moritsugu fora special interview to highlight his experience serving in the
Canadian Armed Force during WWII, a time of great hardship and turbulence for Japanese Canadians. To add to thisnotable occasion, Judge Albert Wong who has more than 39
years of service in the Canadian Armed Force conducted theinterview. While Frank and Judge Wong served during very
different times, their experience of serving as a person ofvisible minority meant that an instant kinship was established.
While Frank’s story is well known, Judge Wong teased out
myriad details including emotional aspects of his experience.
We will be featuring this interview in the month of November in honour of Remembrance Day. Keep a lookout for ashort clip from the interview on The Sedai Project or subscribe to Kokuban to get early access to featured interviews.

健やかな老後をめざして その55 - こむら返りが起こった時！
マーナ豊澤英子（ 医学博士 老年看護スペシャリスト

mernagh@rogers.com ）「こむら返りが最近よく起こるようになって心配！夜中にトイレに行こうとしたら起こるの」と、友人Fさんから電話がありました。私もたまに経験す
ることがあります。
「こむら返り」とは、
ふくらはぎの筋肉（腓腹筋）がけいれんを起こし、強い痛みを生じた状態です。
「脚がつる」とよく表現されます。
太ももや腹筋などにも同じような症状が起こることもあり、医学的には総称して「有痛性筋けいれん」と呼びます。
ほとんどは心配のないものですが、突然に激痛に襲われると不安が大きいですよね！
筋肉は、脳からの信号が脊髄を通って運動神経の末梢に伝わることにより動き始めます。水分不足、電解質のバランス異常、腓腹筋に影響する姿
勢などが原因となって、この経路に異常が生じて過剰な筋肉収縮が起こると考えられています。誰もが経験すると言ってもよいくらいに、就寝中や運動中に起こります。高齢者や妊娠中の人では起こりやすくなる、
と言われて
います。
就寝中には、
同じ姿勢が続くことにより同じ筋肉のみが緊張し続ける、
あ
るいは、掛け布団の重みで足先が伸ばされた（押された）状態が続いて、
ふ
くらはぎが収縮しっぱなしになることが誘因ではないかと考えられます。
また、激しい運動を行うと、神経や筋肉の過敏性が高まり、こむら返りを起こしやすくなります。
さらに運動中には脱水が起きやすく、それに伴って電解質バランスが崩れやすくなる点に留意しておきましょう！
Fさんは75歳の女性です。
「最近よく起こるようになった」というのがやはり気にかかりますね。夜中とのことなので、充分な睡眠がとれなければ体調にも影響します。肝硬変、腎機能不全、神経が障害される病気、ホルモン系（甲状腺・副甲状腺）の病気、高・低ナトリウム血症などが関連している場
合もあります。
また、薬剤が影響する場合もあります。Fさんは、60代後半に高血圧を指摘され、降圧剤を服用しています。
「２ヶ月前から種類と服用量が変更になった」とのことですが、降圧薬や利尿薬のなかにはこむら返りに影響するものがあります。
「担当医に夜間の状況を伝えて、薬剤をチェックしてもらうように！」とアドバイスしました。私は「高齢者の薬物治療とそのコンプライアンス」
に関する研究で医学博士号を取得しました。研究過程
において多くのシニアと面談を行い、薬物治療とセルフケアの難しさを改めて実感しました。持病のある人は、薬物治療の内容が変更になった場合はその後の一般状態に注意を払いましょう。
これまでとは異なる症状が生じたり、何となく不調に感じることがあれば、その経過を記録し、担当医に持参しましょう。
さて、こむら返りが起こった際は両手でつま先をつかみ、手前にゆっくりと引きます。
ふくらはぎの筋肉が伸びる様になるべく膝を伸ばします。
しばらくそのままを保ち、ゆっくり元へもどします。痛みが治まるまで繰り返します。予防にはストレッチが効果的です。壁から少し離れて、脚を肩幅に広げて両手を壁に付け、かかとを上げずに両肘をゆっくり曲げていき、
ふくらはぎとアキレス腱をしっかり伸ばします。私は、室内でつま先立ち歩行とかかと伸ばし（段差のヘリを使ってふくらはぎを伸ばす）を行って、筋力アップとストレッチに努めています。脚が冷えると起こりやすいので、就寝前の保温にも注意しています。

Back2feet Dominates JC3-Pitch Play
Submitted by Bob Doi

26 Bluebell Drive, Markham, ON L3S 3P5 905-472-2727 Home, RobertDoi@hotmail.com
Seven games (2 rainouts) into the season, Back2feet captained by Nick Chung leads the league with an undefeated 7
wins and 0 losses. A combination of timely hitting and stellar defense has led Back2feet to the top of the pack.
The other three teams are tightly bunched. Andrew Lok’s, Loknest Monsters sit in 3rd place with 3 of their 4 losses
coming against Back2feet. Thornhill Toyota captained by Justin Ogino and Tod Nagamatsu’s iA Private Wealth team are
duking it out, trying to avoid the cellar. Both of these teams
are evenly matched as can be told by their head-to-headrecord of 1-win, 1-tie and 1-loss each.
The season culminates with play-offs and year-end banquet.
