Rt. Hon. [Right honourable] MacKenzie King,
Prime Minister of Canada,
To whom it may concern,
Ottawa, Canada,
I, a Japanese repatriate, going to Japan voluntarily, do herewith submit a claim for damage incurred as a result of coercive evacuation from the Pacific Coast.
Before the evacuation, on the solemn pledge that the property handed over to the Custodian would be safeguarded in the interest of the owner, I had complete faith. But unfortunately, this pledge was not kept--both the movable and immovable properties were sold at a loss without my consent. Furthermore, the unemployed and the disabled in the interior housing settlement had to live on what money the Custodian handed over from the forced sale of our property.
By attaching a sheet of various claims, I do hereby humbly petition that my financial loss sustained by me as a result of forced evacuation from the coast be indemnified by the government of Canada.
