People who fought with the Nazi regime in WW2 should be prosecuted, no exceptions. It's alarming that a person with such a history is being celebrated. How does Canada's Jewish community feel about this?

This and Ukrainian troops being pictured with Sonnenrad and other Nazi symbols, is a really bad look. War going on or not, Ukraine and Western allies should show that Nazi symbolism will not be tolerated under any circumstances. But they won't. It's an easy victory for the Russian narrative that they're trying to "de-Nazify" Ukraine as well.

It's not just a bad look. Consider what kind of people the folks sporting swastikas and sonnenrads openly are like in your country, and what war crimes they would perform given the opportunity. That is what these people are definitely doing out there.

Yeah the issue is the "optics" and that it proves Russia right lmao

The issue is the fucking fascism. The issue is the west being unashamed fascists who don't realize they are the baddies wearing skull caps. Russia is correct about western nazis.

Weisenthal Centre had an article about how after WW2 Canada was letting in Ukrainians with Nazi tattoos in.

This is because there was already a Ukrainian diaspora, but they were heavily involved in trade unionism. So they got the most anti-communist people they could find (Nazis) to dilute this.

NATO deliberately haboured, nurtured, and funded these guys for this exact purpose. They did this on purpose. When the war ended Canada and the US scooped up all the Ukrainian Nazis and used them as cold war weapons. When the Ussr was destroyed they sent them back to Ukraine to engineer this scenario, re-writing the history of the 20th century as part of a comprehensive plan to encircle and ultimately destabilize and conquer the RF. It's not a "bad look". It' s been the plan, the deliberate and active and intended plan, for seventy years. This is decades of work by NATO and elements of NATO member militaries and intelligence groups coming to fruition.
