Marking the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, this exhibition explores different aspects of Canada’s involvement in the war against Japan — including the Battle of Hong Kong, the experiences of prisoners of war, and the forced relocation of Japanese Canadians — through key events, photographs, and personal stories.
An exhibition developed by the Canadian War Museum.
