Controversial Nazi Veteran Invitation Forces Canada's House Speaker to Resign

The Speaker of Canada's House of Commons, Anthony Rota, has resigned after inviting a 98-year-old man who fought for a Nazi military unit during World War II to Parliament to attend a speech by the Ukrainian president. Rota introduced the man as a war hero without realizing that he had fought for the SS Galicia Division, a voluntary unit under the command of the Nazis. Rota's actions caused outrage and led to calls for his resignation from opposition parties. The incident has been described as embarrassing and has caused pain to the Jewish community in Canada and around the world. Rota accepted full responsibility for his actions and stepped down after meeting with party leaders.
