- **Event Name**: Author Talk: Jordan Stanger-Ross Challenging Exile: Japanese Canadians and the Wartime Constitution
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 20 Nov, 2025 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: In September 1945, Canada proposed exiling Japanese Canadians to Japan, a country devastated by war. Thousands who had experienced internment and dispossession were now at risk of banishment.

In Challenging Exile, Eric M. Adams and Jordan Stanger-Ross detail the circumstances and personalities behind the exile. They follow the lives of families facing government orders that uprooted them from their homes, stripped them of their livelihoods and possessions, and proposed to exile them from Canada. 

Unfolding in a context of global conflict, sharpened borders, and racist suspicion, the story told in Challenging Exile has enduring relevance for our own troubled times.

Jordan Stanger-Ross, co-author will share insight into the research and writing of Challenging Exile. The Museum will be open until 7pm so you can visit the troubled waters exhibit before the talk. 

Talk will be followed by Q&amp;A. Books will be available for sale and signing.
