DESCRIPTION:In November 2010\, the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre (JCCC)
  in Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada\, ran the Japanese Canadian Experience Conf
 erence: the War Years\, which attracted individuals from our community and
  beyond who generously shared their stories from the War Years of internme
 nt and forced relocation. As a result of this Conference\, the Sedai Proj
 ect (www.sedai.ca) at the JCCC was able to collect over 100 stories from t
 he War Years. These stories have now been preserved for future generation
 s and are posted on the Sedai website.  \nFollowing that Conference\, it 
 was suggested that a subsequent conference be held to collect stories of t
 he years following the War. To that end\, we are presenting “The Japane
 se Canadian Post War Experience Conference – the ‘40s\, ‘50s and ‘
 60s: Building a New Future” on April 6 and 7\, 2013. We believe that thi
 s too is a very important era. In addition to the Japanese Canadians who 
 were living in Canada during the war\, we are hoping that Japanese who arr
 ived in Canada following the war during the years of the immigration quota
  and before the lift of the ban (1945-1967) will also participate in this 
 conference and share their stories. The stories will relate not only to t
 he geographic journey taken by all Japanese Canadians\, but also what it w
 as like to rebuild from having all property and assets seized\, and forced
  to resettle in Eastern Canada or Japan for those who survived the War in 
 Canada\, and what it was like to settle in Canada during a time of discrim
 ination and prejudice\, and build lives and families for those who immigra
 ted to Canada.\n\nOur two day Conference features Dr Greg Robinson as our 
 key-note speaker\, on location at the beautiful facilities of the Toronto 
 JCCC. The 2010 Conference sold out with over 400 attendees - we hope that 
 you'll join us in sharing and preserving the stories of our community!\n\n
