Lion Standing In The Wind

SPECIAL SATURDAY AFTERNOON SCREENING
The JCCC and the Toronto Japanese Film Festival are proud to bring you the Canadian
Premiere of master director Takashi Miike’s inspiring true story of a Japanese doctor
and his devotion to saving lives in Kenya.
Lion Standing in the Wind is based on a real story and chronicles the inspirational
life of Dr Koichiro Shimada who sets off to Kenya to serve as a medical doctor. In aturn of events, he finds himself stationed in a hospital in Lokichogio in the heart of the
Kenyan conflict. Witnessing death and the grim reality of child soldiers rocks him to thecore and propels him on a path that he did not expect. He abandons his life in Japanand devotes himself to saving lives in Kenya.
Based on the novel Kaze Ni Tatsu Lion (The Lion Standing in the Wind) by Masashi
Sada. The novel itself is based on the song Kaze ni Tatsu Lion, also by Sada, which was inspired by love letters written by thereal-life Dr Koichiro Shibata, who ran a mobile clinic in Kenya. The catalyst for this adaptation was actor Osawa Takao, who
was so moved by the song that he urged the songwriter to adapt the song into a novel, and then a film. Osawa went on to staras Dr Shibata in this film adaptation.
A powerful tale of courage, compassion that will leave no audience unmoved!
Starring Osawa Takao, Satomi Ishihara, Yoko Maki
Sushi will be on sale prior to the screening.
The film is preceded by the announcement of the Toronto Japanese Film Festivals 2016 line-up!

JAPANESE CANADIAN CULTURAL CENTRE

The Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre’s Sakura Gala features the best of Canadian and Japanese entertainmentand cuisine, in recognition of exceptional contributions made by individuals to the promotion and exchange
of Japanese culture and enhancing awareness of Nikkei heritage within Canada and abroad.

Representative recipient and original
Asahi player Kaye KaminishiThis year we celebrate and honour the Asahi Baseball Team, the pride of the Japanese Canadian communityfrom when they were established in Vancouver in 1914 to when the team was disbanded during internment
in the 1940s.

The Asahi were an exceptional baseball team because of their commitment to fair play and hard work. They
were a powerful inspiration in Vancouver’s Japanese Canadian community. While faced with discrimination
off the field, the Asahi could then play baseball, where opposing teams respected their sportsmanship andskill. The team effectively broke down racial and cultural barriers for 27 years. The Asahi team members tookthese experiences and the uniting spirit of baseball with them to internment camps in 1942 and gave hopeto others interned by playing baseball. The team was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in2003 and the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Performance by Nagata Shachu

The evening is hosted by CBC Radio’s Mary Ito and features a performance by Nagata Shachu.

I Will Remember the Centre
Legacy News

Only about 7% of Canadians leave a gift to charity in their will. Many are poorly informed about this type of philanthropy and themany possible tax benefits that could increase their cash flow now. Others believe that only the very rich leave gifts to charity
in their will, although every gift is important to local charities.
Annually the JCCC holds Estate Planning Seminars, speaking to groups about estate and tax planning. These events
cover topics such as wills, insurance, gifts of capital appreciated assets, all which relate to sound financial advice for effective
tax strategies.
Through workshops and seminars offered by the JCCC, members of the Centre and surrounding community have been
assisted in their estate planning which will make a lasting mark on the future of the Centre.
Estate planning ensures that after death a person’s estate will be distributed in keeping with their wishes. It is estimatedthat within the next decade more than $1 trillion will move from one generation to the next. The potential for increasing giving
through gift planning is enormous and the advantages for the Centre significant. The easiest way to leave a gift to the Centre
or a charitable organization is through a bequest in your will. Many people set aside a certain dollar amount, while others leavea percentage of their estate or any assets left over after their family has been provided for.
Some people donate something they own, such as a painting or their home. It is possible to leave a paid up life insurance
policy, securities, retirement accounts (RRIF/RRSP) or other financial investments.
A charitable bequest will not however take effect unless you state your intention in your will. Without a will your family
will lose control over your property after death. Your property and finances would then be settled according to provincial laws
whether or not they coincide with your wishes.
You can also leave your gift in the memory of a person to recognize them as someone who made a difference in your life.
This kind of memorial gift can be arranged in your will.
The JCCC’s Yesterday Today Tomorrow Campaign is all about leaving a legacy and paying tribute to family, friends andthose who have made an impression in our lives.
Please note that the information contained in this article is general in nature and is not a substitute for independent legal
or financial planning advice. It is the policy of the JCCC and the JCCC Foundation to encourage donors to seek independent
professional advice before making a planned gift.
To speak to the JCCC about making a planned gift, contact William Petruck on the JCCC Legacy Committee at 416-2490788 or wpetruck@fundingmatters.com, or James Heron, Executive Director at 416-441-2345 ext. 224 or jamesh@jccc.on.ca.

The Wynford Seniors Club, whose purpose is to provide
interesting and enjoyable recreation and activities for its

years, the Wynford Seniors Club continues to support senior
JCCC members offering a variety of activities.
Official club meetings are held twice a month from
September to June and include easy physical exercises,
listening to a variety of presentations, and enjoying thecamaraderie of the group. In past years they arranged travel
excursions to different cities and entertainment centres,
helping out at Caledon Place and at Caravan, learning toline dance, and having their own picnic outings. Today
members continue to participate in the Wynford Bowling
Leagues, excursions, and volunteering as a group at JCCC
events such as the annual Bazaar.

Canadian Tire Money
Heritage Corner

Canadian Tire money – we all have it, we all love it. But did
you know that Fred
Sasaki, a prominent
member of theJCcommunity,
worked at andwas
Treasurerfor
Canadian
Tire
for
many
years? Fred started as a stockboy on roller skates in1944 and worked his way up the ladder. As Treasurer,
Fred’s signature appeared on all denominations ofCanadian Tire money from 1958 to 1985. One of theinitial runs features Sasaki incorrectly spelled as “Saski”.
With the current popularity of customer loyalty cards
and store points systems, it is only a matter of time before
Canadian Tire’s iconic bills will start to disappear from themarketplace. Before that happens, the Moriyama Nikkei
Heritage Centre would like to try to compile a collection of
Canadian Tire Money featuring Fred’s signature to include
as part of our permanent collection.
If you think that you have any of these very special bills,
please consider donating them to the Japanese Canadian
Cultural Centre.
You can contact us through Reception or at heritage@jccc.on.ca. A picture of a 5 cent bill with Fred’s signature isshown here.

9Japanese Canadian Art and Artist Symposium
Saturday, April 2nd, 2016
JCCC Arts Committee“By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere there was song and celebration”
In August 1969, a modest music festival was planned in a farmer’s fieldin Woodstock, New York – and you know what happened!
On Saturday April 2, 2016, a modest art symposium is planned at the
JCCC – and we’ll see what happens!
Presented by the Arts Committee of the JCCC, the Symposium willbring together JC artists, art professionals, art lovers, and the community
to explore our cultural history, and establish connections that will hopefully
inspire future projects. With keynote speakers, discussion groups, andsome good ol’ fashioned getting to know one another, we want to devote the day to thought and celebration. Our two keynote
speakers are:
Haruko Okano, interdisciplinary artist born in Toronto, Ontario, now living in Vancouver, B.C. For ten years, Haruko has
been curator of the Britannia Art Gallery, a community based gallery located in an east side Vancouver library.
Grace Eiko Thomson, independent curator, educator, and cultural historian from Vancouver. In 2000, she opened theJapanese Canadian National Museum with an exhibition, Re-Shaping Memory, Owning History, Through the Lens of Japanese
Canadian Redress. From 2004 to 2010, Thomson served on the Executive Board of the National Association of Japanese
Canadians, as President and Past President between 2006 and 2010.
Attendees will be invited to participate in their choice of two (of six) breakout discussion groups:
Networking strategies:
In the early 1990s, Aiko Suzuki produced a directory of JC’s in the Arts. How can we open up connections and develop
networking opportunities among JC’s in the arts today?
Promoting JC artists:
Strategizing ways to recognize and support the work of JC artists – within our community, and beyond.
JC identity and art:
Is JC identity a concern in the art practice of nisei, sansei, yonsei, gosei, and shin-ijusha/shin-issei? What meaning do theselabels carry? What is "Japanese Canadian Art"?
Surviving as a JC artist:
Sharing experiences and tried and true ways to fulfill creative, spiritual, and financial goals of JC artists.
Exhibit and project ideas:
Bring ideas for potential exhibitions, events, and collaborations. This is a focused opportunity to brainstorm "dream projects".
JC artists and organizations:
There are multiple JC organizations across Canada (including churches and cultural groups) who may have an interest in art
and in working with artists. How can we develop this relationship?
The hope is that new initiatives, projects, connections, and collaborations will be hatched during the day, as well as nurtureand strengthen a common understanding of art in the community.
Morning refreshments, a light lunch, bento dinner, cash bar, and live music by Bruce Tatemichi and associates are includedin the $20 registration fee (tax included).
We don’t expect to be half a million strong, but everywhere will be art and celebration!
To register, please visit www.tinyurl.com/JCsymposium, or call JCCC Reception at 416-441-2345. Registration fee may be prepaid via JCCC Reception in person, by mail, or over the phone. For further information, please contact elizabeth.fujita@jccc.

Remembering Tashme: The Tashme Historical ProjectIn 2016, the Nikkei National Museum will launch the Tashme
Historical Project website – a living and evolving interactive
repository of historical material on the Tashme Internment Camp
that was located near Hope, British Columbia between 1942 and1946. A detailed historical record consisting of a diverse collectionof textual, photographic, graphic, and multimedia materials will beavailable to anyone with a web browser.
A wealth of knowledge is waiting to be discovered by all
those interested, and especially the children, grandchildren, anddescendants of those who lived in Tashme – who have heard
about Tashme all their lives and want to know more. A project goal
National Museum. 2010.23.2.4.364. Majorettes Group Portrait; Tashme, BC. Circa 1943.
is to answer the question: "What was everyday life in the Tashme Nikkei
Canadian Centennial Project Fonds.
Internment Camp really like?"
The project began over two years ago in collaboration with the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre in Toronto through thecreation of the Tashme Project Questionnaire and a detailed map of Tashme residents. The Tashme map will soon be available
along with an educational brochure produced by the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre. Stay tuned!
Since the project launch, a great deal of existing material has been gathered, edited, and organized. With an interactive
approach, we hope to attract the interest and assistance of individuals and other groups and organizations, to assist us incollecting additional historical material.
We invite you to recall your experiences, donate your photographs, and contribute your stories to this important historical
record of our Japanese Canadian internment experience. For more information regarding the website, please contact the
Nikkei National Museum's Collections Manager, Lisa Uyeda at luyeda@nikkeiplace.org, or by phone at 604-777-7000 ext 140.

JCCCライブラリーコーナー
ライブラリーシッターのお薦めの一冊「犬に名前をつける日」 著、山田あかね（映画監督）
昨年秋公開された同名の映画の原作本。
ノンフィクションは、著者の愛犬ミニが余命三カ月を宣告された日から始まる。セカンドオピニオンを求める日々、手術、抗癌剤投与、「ガンに効く」と言われる情報であれば、水でもヒーラーでも試さずにはいられない著者の愛犬への思いは、癌宣告を受けた肉親への対応と寸分も違わない。ペットロスの心情も、肉親の死への悼み同様の経過を辿る。その中で、著者は「犬の映画を撮ろう」と決心する。取材の中で、著者が関わる団体、状況は、ペットと人との関わりを考え、題名に託されたテーマに至るはずである。
								渕上幸江ドキュメンタリードラマという新しい形で著者自身が監督として映画化した作品は、2016年3月10日（木）のJCCCの東日本大震災特別ファンド
レイジングイベントで上映されます。
（イベントに関する詳細は21ページをご参照ください。）
