Research Abstract |
The aim of this study is to establish the history of Japanese Canadian fishermen in the salmon canning industry on the west coast of Canada in the first half of the 20th century by comparing them with fishermen from other ethnic groups. Through a close analysis of various English documents that had been overlooked until recently, it has become clear that the Japanese Canadian fishermen, who were economically weak and belonged to a racial minority, came to contribute to the development of the Canadian fishing industry, replacing the First Nations and Chinese Canadian fishermen. At the same time, it has been recognized that depending on the hometown and the occupational history of the Japanese Canadian fishermen, their fishing skills varied among them.
