Canadian Parliament gives a genuine Nazi a standing ovation:

The man they were cheering is 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka. He fought for the First Ukrainian Division. Apparently, the division changed to this name at the very end of World War II to distance themselves from their true identity, which was the “Waffen-SS Galicia Division”, also known as the “SS 14th Waffen Division”.
After World War II many Nazis changed their identities and pretended to be 'refugees'. This was to avoid capture by obtaining refuge in various countries. Part of Canada’s dark history, and one that I wasn’t taught in public school, is that we happily welcomed many Nazis into our country in the 1950s; Yaroslav Hunka was one of them.
Hunka was introduced in Canada’s packed federal parliament as "a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service". I kid you not.
The Nuremberg war crimes tribunal ruled that the military division with which Hunka served was a “criminal organization”. Members of the division, including Hunka, "committed themselves to German victory, the New European Order, and to Adolf Hitler personally". Canadian soldiers fought against this Nazi division, with some losing their lives as a result.
A statement issued by The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies indicated that Hunka’s division “was responsible for the mass murder of innocent civilians with a level of brutality and malice that is unimaginable. […] An apology is owed to every Holocaust survivor and veteran of the Second World War who fought the Nazis, and an explanation must be provided as to how this individual entered the hallowed halls of Canadian Parliament and received recognition from the Speaker of the House and a standing ovation.”
