Canada's Apology for Honoring Nazi Veteran Sparks Controversy

Canada's governor general has issued an apology for awarding the Order of Canada, one of the country's highest honors, to a Ukrainian immigrant who served in the same Nazi unit during World War II as another veteran who was honored last month. The governor general expressed "deep regret" about the appointment and is reviewing two other honors given to the individual. The incident has sparked international outrage and led to a reckoning over Canada's history of welcoming Nazis and Nazi collaborators after the war. Both veterans were volunteers in the SS Galichina division, accused of war crimes, and were allowed to start new lives in Canada despite their Nazi past.
