Far Outliers links to an interesting article, Stephanie Bangarth's "Nikkei Loyalty and Resistance in Canada and the United States, 1942-1947" in Japan Focus. She comes to the conclusion that Canada's internment of Japanese-Canadians was considerably more rigid and racist than that of the United States' regarding Japanese-Americans, with prohibitions on Japanese-Canadian military service and actual deportations of Japanese-Canadians to Japan. It's worth noting that, despite the actual presence of pro-Axis and fascist propaganda among Italian-Canadians, there were no mass internments of that European immigrant population.
