This might be my favourite "what do we mean when we say race is constructed and malleable" document in #CdnImm history.

For not quite two months in 1930, Syrians and Armenians were not "Asiatic" until they were again because reasons.

Totally credible & objective categorization here, yep.

#racism
28th October, 1930. Dear Sirs - Please note that the instructions issued under date of September 3rd, 1930, to the effect that Syrians and Armenians are to be dealt with under the provisions of P.C., 168, as amended, are hereby rescinded and that for the future these aliens will be considered as persons of Asiatic race and are to be dealt with under the provisions of P.C.2115, dated the 16th day of September, 1930. Yours truly, Commissioner Thomas Gelley, Esq., Division Commissioner of Immigration, WINNIPEG, MAN.
