As we told you yesterday, Canadian Parliament, PM Justin Trudeau and Ukraine President Zelenskyy gave a big round of applause to a man who was a Nazi SS soldier during WWII.

Canada’s House of Commons leader has now apologized:

The speaker of Canada’s House of Commons apologized Sunday for recognizing a man who fought for a Nazi military unit during World War II.

Just after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered an address in the House of Commons on Friday, Canadian lawmakers gave 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka a standing ovation when Speaker Anthony Rota drew attention to him. Rota introduced Hunka as a war hero who fought for the First Ukrainian Division.

“In my remarks following the address of the President of Ukraine, I recognized an individual in the gallery. I have subsequently become aware of more information which causes me to regret my decision to do so,” Rota said in a statement.

Politico’s framing of the story has caught some attention:

“Nazi linked“?

Trudeau calls Freedom Convoy truckers Nazis, then applauds an actual Nazi who Politico calls “Nazi linked.” You can’t make this stuff up.

Community Note incoming!
