This is the best summary I could come up with:
An antiques shop in St. Jacobs, Ont., that received backlash over selling a Nazi uniform is no longer making the item available for purchase.
In a statement to CBC News, the store said it hopes to help preserve history and educate future generations about the horrors of the Second World War.
The statement by the antique dealers said they hope to work with the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies (FSWC) in the future.
"There is nothing that a Nazi tunic can teach an individual that they can't learn better from a quality history book, lecture or education session."
It is not illegal to trade or sell Nazi memorabilia in Canada, Michael Levitt, FSWC's president and chief executive officer, said in a news release.
Jaime Kirzner-Roberts, also from FSWC, previously told CBC News there should be laws that would make the sale of such items illegal in Canada.
