Canada’s House of Commons Speaker Resigns Over Standing Ovation for Nazi

Canada’s Speaker of the House of Commons has resigned over his chamber invitation to a man who fought for the Nazis in the Second World War. Anthony Rota announced he was stepping down from the position on Tuesday after meeting with leaders of all political parties following days of controversy.

Canadian Parliament gives WWII Nazi standing ovation

Russia is not buying Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s attempt to dismiss his, and most of the Canadian Parliament, delivering two standing ovations in honor of a still-proud member of the Nazi Ukrainian Waffen SS Division as a war hero, as merely “deeply embarrassing” and the sole fault of the Parliament’s House Speaker Anthony Rota, who introduced his 98-year-old constituent.

Nor will Rota’s announcement that he is resigning as Speaker silence international discussion of the long-known, but hushed-up history of the British and its Canadian colony’s protection of Nazis from the end of World War II until today.
