Zelensky's a Jew and the Canadian Government honour him by bringing into parliament a former member of the Ukrainian Waffen SS Grenadier Division - a man who was responsible for murdering his ancestors.

I'd say that goes just ever so slightly beyond idiocy, tbh.

The Ukrainians at least have the excuse of a messed up history (the UPA and fighting with the Germans were the only games in town against the Soviets who had after all effectively genocided them) but for the Canadian government and officials not to know that a 98 year old man who fought against the Soviets in his youth probably did it in dodgy company is beyond belief.

Anyone with even a basic understanding of WW2 on the Eastern Front would have been able to warn them not to call him a hero.

As you say, the Ukrainian SS, police and “volunteers” facilitated the genocide of most of Ukrainian Jewry and tens of thousands of Poles, Russians, Soviet POWs etc. I’ve no idea if this old man took part on any of that, but that was the side he was on.
