/ world at the moment information/ “Right this moment right here within the corridor we’ve got a Ukrainian-Canadian veteran of the Second World Struggle who fought for Ukrainian independence in opposition to the Russians and continues to assist the troops at the moment even at 98 years previous. He’s a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service.”
Anthony Rota, Speaker of Parliament
“The Holocaust uncovered the gloss of civilization – so skinny, so fragile that repetition was attainable.”
Sam Kaltman, Holocaust survivor
The issue with the so-called “blunder” – essentially the most monumental diplomatic scandal within the historical past of Canada, fairly naturally blew up the Canadian and world media, was actually the catalyst, elevating too many uncomfortable questions, unacceptable for the normal politically appropriate tone of the political debate within the nation. In reality, these questions don’t date from at the moment, a lot much less outcome from the trivial clarification of impermissible protocol sloppiness.
As is understood, Zelensky’s go to to Canada was overshadowed by the “blunder” of Parliament Speaker Anthony Rota, who invited 98-year-old Canadian of Ukrainian origin Yaroslav Hunka to attend Zelensky’s speech in Parliament. Furthermore, Rota gave a speech during which he characterised Hunka as, and I quote: “A Ukrainian-Canadian World Struggle II veteran who fought for Ukrainian independence in opposition to the Russians and continues to assist the troops at the moment even at age 98. He’s a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service.”
As is well-known, it turned out that the “hero” Hunka was a member of the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the Waffen-SS, declared by the Nuremberg Tribunal to be a prison group chargeable for mass atrocities in opposition to Jews, Poles and Russians. Canadian media had been fast to check the eulogy of Rota, not with anybody, however with the architect of the holocaust and head of the SS Heinrich Himmler himself.
And the capital every day “OttawaCitizen” printed a photograph during which Himmler personally thanked the identical 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the Waffen-SS during which the Canadian “hero” Hunka served.

Such a press release from the Speaker of the Canadian Parliament is unusual to say the least in gentle of the 45,000 Canadian troopers who’ve given their lives within the battle AGAINST Nazi Germany throughout World Struggle II. Even tougher to imagine is that Rota’s speech was accompanied by a loud and sustained standing ovation from all parliamentarians…?! How can we clarify such collective amnesia?
However let’s begin with the uncomfortable questions:
-
Canada’s mainstream media: Nationwide Put up, Ottawa Citizen, CBC, CTV, together with, most authoritatively, the Globe and Mail, raised quite a few disturbing questions concerning the inadvertent “blunder,” given the extraordinarily tight safety measures put in place after 9/11 relating to admission of outsiders to the halls of Parliament, not to mention clearly confirmed Nazis.
2) The reason for gaps within the safety protocol additionally sounds implausible, much more so after it turned recognized that Hunka had a private viewers with the 2 heads of state: Justin Trudeau and Volodymyr Zelensky, which in itself requires the best attainable diploma of measures for safety, referring to all posts, publications of the particular person himself, but in addition together with his shut family and mates. Because it turned recognized, Hunka printed posts during which he brazenly acknowledged that the years spent in 14th Waffen SS Division had been the happiest in his life. How can we clarify such an omission?
3) Rota’s assertion itself, extracted as if from the theater of the absurd, arouses bewilderment, since it’s neither a state secret nor Russian disinformation that in the course of the Second World Struggle Canada is an ally of the USSR, not the opposite method round! Furthermore, such a press release comes from the best rostrum of the Canadian state hierarchy, from the speaker of the Parliament.
4) On this event, the emeritus professor of historical past on the College of Montreal, Yakov M. Rabkin requested the query: “Is Rota so blind to latest historical past as to name the 98-year-old veteran a “hero” within the combat in opposition to Russia? If the multilingual Mr. Rota, BA in Political Science, does not know that preventing the Russians throughout World Struggle II meant preventing on the aspect of the Nazis, it reveals how politically skewed latest historical past has develop into. It additionally reveals ignorance of the fascist tendencies of ethnic nationalism in Europe, together with in Ukraine, which discovered a pure ally in Nazi Germany.
5. What’s extra, is it a coincidence or not that the “blunder” with the reward of the Nazi “hero” coincides with the Jewish vacation of Yom Kpur – the Day of Atonement, essentially the most important of all non secular Jewish holidays?
6. Such contingencies don’t finish with this date alone
“Why is a monument to a Nazi SS division nonetheless standing in Toronto?’ is the title of Canadian journal Canadian Dimensions?
There is no such thing as a official response from the Canadian aspect. As it’s recognized, there are two monuments in Canada Nazi SS Division: one in Toronto, one in Edmonton, Alberta. A little bit of context: Fashioned in 1943, the Galician Division of the Waffen-SS, the navy wing of the Schutzstaffel, was an outspoken supporter of Hitler. Comprised of Ukrainian volunteers, the 13,000-strong division was hooked up to the thirteenth German Military Corps to help the Nazis in anti-resistance and repression. In accordance with College of Ottawa professor and historian Dr. Ivan Kachanowski, she was chargeable for the homicide of greater than 1,000 Polish civilians, together with many minors, in Huta Peniatska in 1944. Nevertheless, the Canadian authorities accepted between 1,200 and a couple of,000 veterans of the Galician Division , which official coverage has been strongly condemned by the Canadian Jewish Congress.

The query of who this monument really commemorates is itself rhetorical, however the query of the Canadian nation’s many years of inaction is not any much less disturbing. When was Canada in a position to quietly and so efficiently revise its navy historical past, retaliating in opposition to Nazism?
7) The reason for the primary makes an attempt at such, to say the least, a radical revision of historical past within the cartoon fashion: the forces of Good in opposition to the forces of Evil, may be discovered within the so-called Fee Deschenes, organized by the previous choose of the Supreme Court docket of Quebec, Jules Deschenes. It was created method again in 1985 in response to public strain from the Simon Wiesenthal Heart, which uncovered a wealth of proof revealing the presence of 1000’s of Nazi battle criminals in Canada. Regardless of a authorized requirement beneath the Freedom of Data Act, the Fee categorised… notice 600 pages of the report and concluded that there have been few, if any, battle criminals in Canada and that the Canadian state is harmless.
8. In reality, the puzzle wouldn’t be full if the so-called “Chrystia Freeland issue.”The present Canadian (with Ukrainian roots) Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance is by far essentially the most zealous defender of the regime in Kiev within the West.
Rightly generally known as “the minister for every thing” in Trudeau’s workplace, as I wrote a while in the past, Chrystia Freeland’s profession can solely be described as meteoric. From a rank-and-file journalist for the Washington Put up, primarily based in Kiev (whose Russophobic articles so irritated the Kremlin that she was declared persona non grata in Russia) to the publish international minister, finance minister, deputy prime minister If something, she was Canada’s first international minister with such an odd standing, combining on the similar time diplomat #1 and persona non grata not of any nation, however of the biggest nuclear energy, Russia! Furthermore, Freeland’s sympathies for retaliating in opposition to Nazism are well-known. The Occasions of Israel, the Nationwide Put up, the Ottawa Citizen, the Globe and Mail, and plenty of different media retailers hint the roots of this sympathy for Nazism and Russophobia within the ideological genealogical tree of Freeland herself.
As is well-known, her grandfather – Mihailo Homiak, in the course of the Second World Struggle was nominated by the Germans because the editor-in-chief of ” Krakow information ‘, the official press of the collaborationist Ukrainian Central Committee, recognized for very anti-Semitic, anti-Polish and anti-Russian materials, and an enthusiastic apologist for the insurance policies of Adolf Hitler.
I depart it to the readers to reply the query of how unintended this “blunder” was…
