Which Parliament in which Province in Canada ?

Do you have any links to images of Parliament saluting Nazis at one of Canada's Parliament buildings ?

I do remember a Nazi veteran (one person) was a guest at the Parliament building in Ottawa...the Nazi veteran was not vetted as in nobody knew he was a former Nazi until someone from Ukraine at the Parliament building recognized the person but by that time...it was too late...

The speaker of the House of Commons had introduced the person without knowing the background of the person...other Parliament members from "all political parties"...not just the conservatives "clapped/cheers" on the introduction...

No saluting as you stated.

The above is no worst than Nazi soldiers (WWII) veterans buried in U.S. American cemetaries in the United States because those soldiers were dual citizens that left America to fight for Germany but then when they were killed in action or returned back to the United States after the war...to later die but still as a U.S. citizen...

They obviously had chosen to be buried in the United States in the country of the immediate family members instead of in the country they fought for in the War.​

They were buried in U.S. cemeteries including some buried in U.S. military cemateries side by side next to U.S. military soldiers that fought in the war eagainst Germany...against Nazism.

The same is true for many other countries that had dual citizens or citizens returning home from the was...Ukraine, Russia, Germany, Italy, America, Japan, Britain...many other countries because it was a global war.

My grandfather is buried in a military cemetery in Texas...he's a WWII U.S. military veteran that died after the war. On his right, buried text to him is another U.S. citizen that's Japanese and fought for Japan in the war and on his left is another U.S. citizen that's German and fought for Germany in the war...

War veterans buried side by side in a U.S. military cemetery in the United States.

By the way...

From World War II, there is one German prisoner of war (POW) and two Italian POWs buried at Arlington National Cemetery. The Geneva Convention (1929) mandates that prisoners of war who die in captivity should be "honorably buried."​

Let's take a look at the real Nazi problem -- Russia's Nazis. No nation on the face of the earth has more neo-Nazis than Russia.

Is there any truth to Russia's 'Ukrainian Nazis' propaganda?
Russian propagandists are constantly saying Ukraine is full of Nazis, and posting alleged evidence online. DW's fact-checking team has investigated some of this supposed evidence.

Russia keeps trying to hack; they are re-using existing tools and exploits in their efforts. This outlines why it is important to keep your devices (including servers) patched and up-to-date.

Hackers linked to Russian government found using some very familiar malware tools
Russian hackers used exploits ‘strikingly similar’ to those developed by spyware companies
https://www.techradar.com/pro/intellexa-and-nso-group-exploits-used-by-russian-hackers

Research from Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) has found evidence Russian-backed threat actor APT29 used iterations of watering hole campaigns which were ‘identical or strikingly similar’ to exploits developed by notorious spyware companies NSO Group and Intellexa.

TAG found Mongolian government websites were hit by multiple campaigns earlier in 2024 after discovering hidden exploit codes embedded in the sites. The exploits meant anyone who used the sites using an iPhone or Android device may have had their phone hacked and data stolen.

APT29 is well-known for its links to Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service and notable attacks on high-ranking western targets, such as US and German Government officials, as well as SolarWinds and Microsoft.

All patched up
The exploit code used in the attacks targeting iPhones shared the “exact same trigger as the exploit used by Intellexa,”, whilst the Android version used a “very similar trigger” to a code developed by NSO Group, TAG said. A patch was available for the exploits, but the attack was still effective against unpatched devices.

It’s unclear how the hackers obtained the copy of the exploit, but it could have been bought from the companies directly or stolen. TAG's research does not indicate APT29 recreated the exploits organically, but rather somehow managed to get a hold of the spyware maker’s program.

The US government recently sanctioned the Intellexa consortium for developing and selling spyware Predator, which was used to target US government officials and journalists, and the NSO Group for its development of the Pegasus surveillance tool.

Earlier in 2024, Poland launched an investigation into the use of the Israeli-developed Pegasus spyware against opposition political figures by the previous administration.

Google recommends users and organizations apply patches quickly and keep software fully up-to-date to protect against this type of attack. We’ve listed the best malware removal tools to help you stay protected.
 
It's time western governments firmly put their foot down on Russian propaganda efforts which intend to undermine democracy.

Biden admin to target Russia over 2024 election disinformation efforts, sources say
Attorney General Merrick Garland is expected to detail the move later Wednesday.

Top federal law enforcement officials are poised to announce a series of targeted actions Wednesday aimed at countering Russia's ongoing efforts to interfere in the 2024 election, multiple sources familiar with the matter confirmed to ABC News on Wednesday.

For months, the Biden administration has been publicly warning of Russia's efforts to influence Americans through disinformation and propaganda to sow distrust in the election.

Among the steps expected to be announced during an afternoon meeting at the Justice Department, sources said, will be law enforcement activity related to a Russian disinformation campaign and actions related to Russia's state-controlled TV network RT.

Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI director Christopher Wray and other senior officials will announce the actions during a meeting with DOJ's Election Threats Task Force, which is responsible for investigating threats to election workers and other officials around the country.

CNN first reported news of the expected law enforcement actions.
