Scope and content

The Japanese Canadian Citizens Association (JCCA) formed in 1947 as the first national organization to represent Japanese Canadians across the country. This series contains records created by the Toronto Chapter of the JCCA. During the late 70s and into the 80s, the organization began to think and take action regarding Redress for the treatment of Japanese Canadians during WWII. Though the National level of the association changed its name in 1980, some chapters, including Toronto, continued to organize under the title of JCCA.

Records include meeting minutes, agendas, correspondence within and outside of the organization. The subject matter relates predominantly to Redress.
