Last Friday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky and Canada’s Parliament gave a standing ovation to a Ukrainian former member of Waffen SS.
During Canada parliament's welcome ceremony to Zelensky, House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota introduced an elderly man in the parliamentary gallery whom he described as a “veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians and continues to support the troops today even at his age of 98.”
