Controversial Nazi Honoring in Canadian Parliament Sparks Outrage and Resignations

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has issued an apology on behalf of Canada after a Ukrainian man who fought for a Nazi unit was unknowingly applauded in parliament. The incident, which drew global condemnation, occurred during a visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Trudeau apologized directly to Zelensky and expressed deep regret for the standing ovation given to Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old former member of the 14th Waffen-SS Grenadier Division. The Speaker of the House, Anthony Rota, who invited Hunka, has resigned, taking responsibility for the mistake. Opposition leader Pierre Poilievre criticized Trudeau for not taking personal responsibility and called the incident the "biggest single diplomatic embarrassment" in Canada's history.
