> From the bustling docks of Steveston to remote inlets on the northern
> Coast, Japanese Canadians have made unique contribution to fishing in BC
> both before and after the war. Their story is intertwined with the labour
> and political history of BC before 1949, the province had some of the
> toughest racial exclusion laws in Canada. With pride and perseverance, the
> Nikkei community proved their skill as fishermen and cannery works, and
> built a new life as Canadian citizens.
