- Anti-Oriental_Riots_(Vancouver) abstract "The Vancouver Anti-Oriental Riots occurred the weekend of September 7 of 1907, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Vancouver race riot was only the second act of anti-Oriental violence in the history of Vancouver; the first incident took place in the area of Coal Harbour, in 1887.In the early years of the twentieth century race relationson the Pacific Coast of Canada were strained. Therewere some sixteen thousand Chinese in the province; in a city of one hundredthousand people or around 8% of the population. There were also 8000 Japanese and around 5000 South Asian enclaves. The Chinese had come to Canada to build the railways; the Japanese to fish; and Indians to farm and log.At this time, other ships with more migrants were turning up-- the Suian Maru [300 Japanese], SS Kumeric [1177 Japanese]and the SS Monteagle [901 Indians, further 100 in 1908]. Meanwhile, the Panic of 1907, caused by the failure of Augustus Heinze's brother's bank in New York. exacerbated the labour market and brought racial tensions to the fore. White people perceived Asians as taking "their" jobs. Australia had enacted "White Australia" legislation in 1899to eliminate Asian immigration. The Asian Exclusion League in Canada lobbied for Canada to do the same.A riot by East Indian lumber workers in Bellingham in 1907 started the events. Soon tensions flared north and angry mobs stormed through Powell Street in Vancouver's China town breaking windows and assaulting Chinese in the streets. The riot lasted 3 days in September 1907, finally the Vancouver police closed the streets and calm slowly returned. Many windows were broken and the population terrified. The second day of the riot turned against the Japanese community. There were similar actions in Steveston in Richmond against the Japanese.".
