Susan and Roy Tsuji created the TCI Communication company, sometimes labelled as Tsuji Productions in 1980. Their popular Television series Hello Japan was a half-hour weekly program produced and hosted by Susan Tsuji. The episodes and clips spread from 1977 to 2000, including the short program Hello Toronto. It consisted of interviews, musical performances, and on-location shoots of community and public events (1984-2004).

They capture interactions the Japanese Canadian community with federal and provincial politicians, conferences pertaining to the National Association of Japanese Canadians (NAJC), Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre (JCCC), and the Redress Campaign and more.

Many Japanese Canadians were interned and deported, while others were sent to the sugar beet farms of Alberta and Manitoba. The property of Japanese Canadians was seized by the Government and sold without their consent. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and NAJC President Art Miki ended a successful campaign that led to the historic signing of the Redress agreement on September 22, 1988. The Tsuji family interviewed and captured key events and spokespersons from the NAJC for the Redress journey across Canada to Ottawa. Most notable interviews were held for Roger Obata, Joy Kogawa and Art Miki, the president of the NAJC.
