Patricia E. Roy is the winner of the 2013 Lifetime Achievement
Award, Canadian Historical Association. Patricia E. Roy examines
the climax of antipathy to Asians in Canada: the removal of all
Japanese Canadians from the BC coast in 1942. Canada ignored the
rights of Japanese Canadians and placed strict limits on Chinese
immigration. In response, Japanese Canadians and their supporters
in the human rights movement managed to halt "repatriation" to
Japan, and Chinese Canadians successfully lobbied for the same
rights as other Canadians to sponsor immigrants. The final triumph
of citizenship came in 1967, when immigration regulations were
overhauled and the last remnants of discrimination removed.
