BC Redress Logo

Logo design by John Endo Greenaway

The BC Redress logo can be read in a number of ways. Some might see a mountain range with the moon rising above its peaks, reflected in a clear mountain lake, symbolizing the wartime home for many Japanese Canadians. Others might see two links of a chain, symbolizing unity, strength and perseverance. Still others might see people, or peoples, arms linked in friendship, symbolizing a more harmonious future.

This website has been created through funding from the National Association of Japanese Canadians.
