Transitioning the Toronto New Japanese Canadian Association(NJCA) to the New Japanese Canadian Committee (NJCC)
Message from Gary Kawaguchi, JCCC President
I am pleased to announce that the New Japanese Canadian Association (NJCA) has agreed to become part of
the JCCC after exisitng 40+ years as a separate organization. The NJCA board looking to the future recognizedthat the JCCC mission to promote Japanese culture and the settlement history of all Nikkei in Canada was thebest way to further build our community by bringing everyone closer together.
The former NJCA will be well represented on the JCCC board with a Vice President position and the creationof the NJC (New Japanese Canadian) Committee to further develop joint programming. This is a milestone uniqueto Toronto as the decades and generational history separating the two major waves of immigration from Japan(late 1800's and first decade of the 1900's before the next wave in the 1960's & 70's) created some assimilation
issues in every city across North America.
This year we will be celebrating 138 years since the first issei came to Canada and we will also be celebrating
50 years since the first Shin Ijusha (new immigrant) arrived representing the next wave. With a new generation ofyoung leaders taking a more central role in the JCCC I am confident that the centre is in good hands for the next
50 years.

Message from the New Japanese Canadian Committee members
Dear JCCC community,
At the recent annual meeting of the Toronto New Japanese Canadian Association (NJCA) on April 17, 2015, it was decided that, as of June,
the NJCA will come under the umbrella of the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre as the New Japanese Canadian Committee (NJCC).
About 40 years have passed since the post-war migrants (new immigrants) launched the NJCA. As time has passed, the new migrants
have aged, and their families have grown to include children andgrandchildren. With the increase of international marriages, theattraction of Toronto to young restauranteurs with the Japanesefood boom, the popularity of the working holiday visa program,post-secondary and post-graduate students, and an increasein the number of Japanese expats working here, the current
Japanese society has undergone significant diversification.
The generations of people born here can hardly be called
new immigrants, and we believe that there is a strong need fora place where our extended family members, new and old, cancome together as one and celebrate our Japanese heritage.
To do so, we strongly believe that everyone of Japaneseheritage, of whatever generation, from infant to elderly, needto support each other while understanding our respective
backgrounds, and continue the process of building a richJapanese society.
As it is increasingly the venue where friends and families
get together, host events, take classes, and enjoy other activities,
the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre is the natural place forthis to happen.

The JCCC Bazaar 2015

A triumph of generosity, volunteerism and community spirit
Saturday May 2 was a beautiful, warm day perfect for the JCCC’s Annual Bazaar. It made the experience a pleasant one for all those
shoppers waiting in line, anticipating the official opening.  To help bide the time and avoid the line ups once the doors opened, there were presales on dining room tickets and many shoppers took advantage of the opportunity.
Once the doors opened, everyone raced off, looking for great items, checking out the silent auction and queuing up for sushi or anobento. For some, trips to the car to unload their purchases was standard operating procedure.
Without the tremendous commitment and cooperation of many community members and organizations, this Bazaar would be an
impossible event to coordinate. We would like to offer our sincere thanks to the organizing committee, the wonderful volunteers, the hardworking staff and the community for making this year’s bazaar a huge success!

Volunteer Spirit
By Volunteer Committee

This year's Bazaar welcomed over 2,000 visitors, andrecruited the help of over 300 volunteers, of which
over 50% of volunteers were first timers.   We would
especially like to commend those who, despite thestress of such a busy and hectic event, still found time
to take care of new volunteers who had questions,concerns and special needs. One volunteer leader
welcomed a volunteer who was visually impaired
without any hesitation saying, “there are many things
you can do, come, and let’s work together in our area.”
In another situation, although the JCCC kindly requests
that all volunteers under 14 be accompanied by family
or a guardian on a busy day like the bazaar, a young
volunteer showed up on her own, but a volunteer leader
was happy to take it upon herself to care for her, andmade sure she was assigned to a task she could do
safely and under supervision.
On a day like the Bazaar, it is easy to be consumed
by all the tasks that have to be done, but in the midst of
all the hustle and bustle, the JCCC is most fortunate tohave volunteers who go out of their way to demonstrate
kindness and patience to others. These volunteers truly
exemplify the true nature of the “volunteer spirit”.

learning to cook mapo tofu and stir-fried bok choy. Participants learned some basic techniques in knife handling, food preparation, foodsafety, and cooking, then enjoyed their meal together with the chef and his team of assistants.
In May, Christine Takasaki and her team worked with eight participants learning to cook Japanese Beef Curry, Miso Soup, and BreadPudding. Learning cooking terms like “dredging” and braising and the difference between cubing and mincing, add to our cooking knowledge
base and make reading recipes simpler.

Community Outreach and Volunteer Involvement!

Sedai Corner

Summer has crept in, and Sedai has some exciting updates to announce!
First, Sedai would like to thank and acknowledge our newest interviewees: Roy Ito, Mayumi Takasaki,
and Tamio Wakayama. Roy’s powerful story of uprooting, rebuilding life, and the importance of dedicatedcommunity involvement and the fight for rights was both enlightening and inspiring. Mayumi’s unique memories of Tashme – post 1946 – andthe rebuilding of Japanese Canadian life in Steveston following the war were incredibly insightful and provide a much needed perspective on
the community of Japanese Canadians who rebuilt lives on the west coast following the war. And lastly, Tamio recounted the difficulties andtragedy that his family faced while rebuilding life out east after the war, only to be followed by an incredible journey to the southern UnitedStates and involvement with the civil rights movement. Sedai is incredibly grateful to these newest voices to the Sedai archives, and looks
forward to speaking with each volunteer again!
Second, Sedai was honoured to attend the first Summer Institute held by the Landscapes of Injustice project (supported by the Social
Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada), headed by Project Director and researcher, Dr. Jordan Stanger-Ross at the
University of Victoria in early May. While many Japanese Canadians and Japanese Americans may be aware of certain shared experiencesof wartime incarceration, forced removal, and discrimination, one aspect of the Canadian experience stands in stark contrast to that ofJapanese Americans south of the border – that of the Japanese Canadian experience of legislated dispossession. With guidance and support
by experienced academics from across Canada and abroad, and the thoughtful considerations presented by members of the Japanese
Canadian community (represented by the project’s Community Council), the project will push forward in the hopes of creating an enlightening
body of research, culminating in a traveling exhibit in seven years’ time. If you would like more info on the project, please visit www.
landscapesofinjustice.com for further info and future updates.
If you – or someone you know – would like to step up and support our community records, or if you know someone who should be a partof our recorded mosaic (in Vancouver, in Toronto, in Ottawa, or elsewhere!), please contact Elizabeth Fujita-Kwan, at elizabeth.fujita@jccc.

Support Our Kids in Toronto, Homestay and Summer Camp &For Children affected by Nepal Earthquake

Chako Setoyama, Chair, SOK Toronto Committee
It has been four years since the Great East Japan Earthquake.
For the past two years, ten students from the Tohoku region were
given the pportunity to experience another culture and forget theirdifficulties for a short while.
These children who lived through the traumatic experience ofthe earthquake have suffered feelings of fear, loneliness and inner
pain. Coming to Toronto for two weeks is an unforgettable andhealing experience for them. At the farewell party we hold eachyear on their last day, these children give heartwarming speeches
flooded with tears expressing their appreciation for the love all ofyou in Toronto have shown them. They go back to their homes inthe disaster-stricken areas with their fond memories of Toronto.
You can see their activities of the homestay programme on thefollowing website: http://support-our-kids.org
Through seeing the “light of hope” lit in these children, we
ourselves find hope in our own hearts. Ten children will be coming
to Toronto again this August. A fundraising party for Support Our
Kids in Toronto programme will be held on Sunday June 21, 2015.
Please come join us for a Japanese style garden party overlooking
Lake Ontario with delicious food, drinks and entertainment.
This year, we will donate a part of the proceeds of this eventto the children in Nepal who have been affected by the massive
earthquake in their home country on April 25, 2015.
Please invite your friends and family for a fun day. Thank youvery much for your generous support. We look forward to seeing
you all!

Interrogation: Lives and Trials of the Kamloops Kid
Told through letters and images from opposite sides of WWII, this intimate look at how loyalty
and national identity are shaped, chosen, or forced upon us is inspired by the true story of
Kanao Inouye, “Canada's war criminal”.
For years playwright Karri Yano heard whispers about Kanao Inouye, better known as
The Kamloops Kid, the notorious interrogator of Canadian POWs, tried first for war crimes
as a Japanese interrogator and then for treason against Canada. At the same time, his sister
Martha (Yano’s grandmother) along with 22,000 other Japanese Canadians were deemed
enemy aliens by the Canadian government and forcibly evacuated to internment camps inBC’s interior.
Set against a backdrop of WWII, racism, and political manipulation Interrogation reveals
the steps that led to Kanao Inouye becoming “Canada’s war criminal”.

2015年JCCC恒例バザー
5月2日（土）に開催されたJCCC恒例バザーはよい天候に恵まれ大成功に終わりました。今年も早くから長蛇の列ができ、開扉と同時にサイレ
ントオークション会場、すし・弁当コーナー、掘り出し物を目指し多くの人々がお目当ての売り場に殺到しました。
JCCC恒例バザーを開催するにあたってご協力頂きました、各企業・団体・個人の皆様、並びに会場の設営、販売に多大のご協力を頂いたボランティアの皆様に心からお礼申しあげます。

ボランティア精神
ボランティアコミッティより
今年のバザーには、ボランティアがおよそ300人がいました。その半分は毎年来て下さるベテランボランティアの皆さま、残り半分は初めて来る新米ボランティアの皆さまでしたが、およそ30か所のブースやエリアで大奮闘して下さいました。
その大忙しの中で、心洗われる出来事が幾つかありました。JCCCでは初めて障害を持つ方がバザーにボランティアとしてご参加下さい
ました。混雑したバザーのようなイベントに参加するのは危険ではないかと不安であったため、色々なエリアの方にご相談した中で、一人のボランティアの方は、「『元気な笑顔でいらっしゃいませ』の挨拶など、出来る事は結構あると思うから、私達のエリアで頑張ってもらいましょう。」と何の迷いもなく引き受けてくださいました。中々良い案が出てこなかった中、その一言は目から鱗が落ちました。その他に、14歳以下の子は保護者同伴でボランティアをすることになっておりますが、当日一人で現れてしまいました。１つのエリアの皆さんは進んで面倒見ることを引き受け、14歳の子も安全に、楽しく一生懸命働き、チームワーク抜群で仲良く働いて下さいました。
忙しいイベントの最中では、大多数の人は、大抵必死で自分のタスクを全うしようとするため、他の人への気配りをする余裕はなくなりがちです。
しかし、その中で、初対面であるにも関わらず、当然のごとく小さな思いやりを持ち、お互いを助け合いボランティアしていらっしゃる
姿はまさに見習うべく『ボランティア精神』
であると感動し、心が温かくなりました。

謝を申し上げます。
この度はJCCC理事より、日頃の感謝を込めて、JCCCでご活躍されている全てのボランティアの皆さまを7月19日（日）午後３時より開催されるありがとうデ

新移住者協会(NJCA)から 新日系コミッティー(NJCC)へ
JCCC理事長ゲリー・カワグチからのメッセージ
これまで40年以上もの間それぞれ独立した団体として存在してきた新移住者協会（NJCA）と日系文化会館(JCCC)がこのたび一つとなることになりました。長い年月を経て、日本人移民だけでなく、日系カナダ人を含む日系社会の形態が多様化してきた中、今この2団体が一つとなり、より強いつながりをもつ日系社会を築き上げる時代がきた、というNJCA理事会からの歩み寄りにより実現する運びとなりました。
これからも日本文化の紹介、そしてこれまで受け継がれてきた日系カナダ人の歴史継承に相互協力していきたいと思います。
前NJCA理事は、JCCC副理事長として任命されるほか、新日系コミッティが結成され、今後もこれまで同様さまざまなプログラムを共同運営・
開催してまいります。北アメリカどの都市でも、移住した二つの移民グループ（1800年代後半から1900年初頭の旧移民と戦後1970年・80年代の新移民）は常に世代、考え方や意識の上で大きなずれがあり、お互いを受け入れあうということが難しい、という実状のなか、今回のNJCAとJCCCの統合はトロント日系社会にとって更なる飛躍の一歩だといえるでしょう。
最初に日本人がカナダに移住してから138年目を迎える今年は、戦後カナダにわたってきた新移民のカナダ移住50周年の年でもあります。
これから将来、若い世代のリーダーたちがJCCCの中心となって、一緒にこのJCCCを活気あふれる憩いの場として築き上げていくことができると信じております。

新日系コミッティーからのメッセージ
JCCCコミュニティーの皆様、こんにちは。
トロント新移住者協会（NewJapanese
Canadian
Association : NJCA)は、去る2015年4月17日の年次総会で日系文化会館の傘下になることが決定し、この６月より、JCCCの新日系コミッティー（New Japanese Canadian Committee: NJCC）
として、共に歩んでいくことになりました。
戦後の移住者(新移住者)が立ち上げた新移住者協会も約40年の時が経ちました。現在はその新移住者は高齢化し、その家族も大きくなり、子供達、孫達の世代となっています。国際結婚家族の増加、
日本食ブームによる若い実業家のトロント進出、ワーキングホリデー、留学生の受け皿となる日系企業の増加、移住者とその候補者等々、現在の日系社会は多様化してきています。
そうして大きくなった家族、新移住者の子供達、孫達は日系カナディアンであり、彼らを新移住者としてはくくることはできません。私たち新移住者は日系社会全体を一つに考えることで、ヘリテージを大切にしながら家族のみんながいられる場所をつくれるのではないかと考えています。
そのためには、新移住者と日系の隔たりはなく、お互いのバックグラウンドを尊重しあい、
写真提供Yoko Reynolds
日系他者、日系人、赤ちゃんからお年寄りまでを支えられるような、
そんな豊かな日系社会作りへの活動を続けていくべきだと強く信じています。
日系文化会館をますます私達の憩いの場として活用し、出会いや再会、友人や家族との集いの場所にしていきましょう。
これからも、どうぞよ
ろしくお願いします。
新日系コミッティー一同

JCCCライブラリーシッターお奨めの一冊
直木賞受賞作品「蜩ノ記」

著、葉室麟

物語は「起居を共にし３年後の切腹を見極める」という監視役を課せられた地方小藩の若き藩士が老藩士の住む里を訪ねるところから始まります。
さかのぼること７年前に当時のお家騒動に巻き込まれ、身の潔白を釈明することなく「蟄居して藩史を編纂し、十年後に切腹すること」という藩主の命玲を受けて家族と共の隠居している老藩士。
この老藩士が十年の間に書き綴る日記が「蜩の記」なのです。
3年間、藩史の編集を手伝った
り、折に触れ「蜩の記」を読むうちに、
若き藩士は老藩士の潔い生きざまに感銘を憶える様になり、自らも成長する日々を過ごし、やがて家族の一員となってゆくことになるの
です。
馬場かず子
映画「蜩の記」はトロント日本映画祭で上映されます。
