Prime Minister invited Waffen-SS veteran Hunka to his official reception for Zelensky

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invited Yaroslav Hunka, the Ukrainian Waffen-SS veteran who received two ovations in the House of Commons during a visit by Volodymyr Zelensky, to a reception he hosted in the Ukrainian President’s honour the same day.

Mr. Hunka did not attend the Toronto reception, but his invitation by the Prime Minister to the event with the Ukrainian President has raised fresh questions about who approved the Waffen-SS veteran’s attendance, and if his background had been checked.

 

Remember how justin and his liberal supporters here screamed up and down that it wasn't the LIBERALS who invited the guy to parliament?

Yeah. Right.  Trudeau knew all about it and his office invited the guy to come.

[ExFlyer]

Get over it. Old news regurgitated. LOL

[Army Guy]

Justin actually fired a guy for doing that very thing, now news comes out that the PM office invited the same guy to another event... it raises questions like Did justin tell someone to invite the Nazi, or did he approve of the name thinking it would be a good idea, or did one of his staff make this decision on his own, once again no accountability for anyone.......not to mention who does the vetting here, once again my sons pet hamster could have done a better job...

Lets remined everyone that this was an inter national incident, it embarrassed Canada and Ukraine, and gave mother Russia a PR win...I get it our inter national reputation is shi*, but this really could have been prevented...

Top it off the media and justin is pointing out the name was submitted by the some ukrainian group it is their fault ...lets forget that it is not the Ukrainians group responsibility for security at the parliament, that would fall on the government , and if the process is this loose then perhaps it needs to get tightened a lot...

Thats what makes this news important...

It has some importance, even the CBC's reporting on it.

Anthony Rota became the scapegoat for Trudeau's incompetency.

Exactly.  Justin went out of his way to say he had no involvement and punished someone else for it -  now it looks like it may have been his idea all along or at least had his specific blessings.

That's a big deal.

And justin denied that it had anything to do with the libs AT ALL - the speaker is independent don'tcha know.

And many liberal supporters here (but i'm a conservative honest!) made a huge fuss about that.  Others noted that there was no way the speaker operated independently but noooo we were told - it had NOTHING to do with the liberals!

But it does.

He was invited at the same time he appeared in Parliament.

He just took the speakers invite s being appropriate.

"Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invited Yaroslav Hunka, the Ukrainian Waffen-SS veteran who received two ovations in the House of Commons during a visit by Volodymyr Zelensky, to a reception he hosted in the Ukrainian President’s honour the same day."

"....raised fresh questions about who approved the Waffen-SS veteran’s attendance, and if his background had been checked."     and the speaker took responsibility and left his post.

Old news. Must be a slow news day. LOL

That NEVER Happens.  The PMO always does it's own vetting.

Which suggests he was involved in the invitation to parliament to begin with

Your hero was knee deep in this and you're just making crap up to defend him.

Slow news day....regurgitation news....who cares news, Sept. 22, 2023 news.

"a special event” at Fort York Armoury in Toronto on the evening after Mr. Zelensky’s appearance in Parliament on Sept. 22 was sent to Mr. Hunka on Sept. 19 by the Office of Protocol of Canada."

"The Prime Minister had no knowledge of this individual before the independent recognition by the former Speaker of the House of Commons. Last September, there was a community event with the President of Ukraine in Toronto with over 1,000 people invited. Hundreds of Canadians were invited upon the recommendation of groups like the Ukrainian Canadian Congress,”

The information was always there, the event info was the same day and the invitalion list was out there at the time. It is just that someone needed to print something so, dig out old news LOL

For sure it was a vetting error and the speaker took responsibility...and he is out. Over and out LOL

A lot of nothing LOL

Typical liberal.  "ummm uhhh  we have no rebuttal so "WHY ARE YOU MAKING A BIG DEAL OVER IT IT"S NOTHING".

The event was the same day - the invitation to enjoy the event was not the same day and previously it was not clear that it was the pmo's office that issued the invitiation.

Does this somehow make things worse for Trudeau?

Zelensky's coziness with Nazis is well-documented. He might have offered Hunka a job. 

With Yaroslav Hunka being a Ukrainian Waffen-SS veteran, it's not unlikely that he had some contact with the Azovs.

Please! Please don't look at the fact that my beloved leader lied and invited the nazi's to parliament and for snacks and to party and then lied about it!!!!  Can't we just pretend the very thing he fired one of his people for doing while lying about doing it himself is no big deal and ain't newsworthy?  Please - he's had SUCH a tough year!!!! (snif)

- ExFlyer.

There - translated it for you.

It's a big deal. Its such a big deal he fired someone over doing the same thing he did. IT' was an international embarrassment.

If it was no big deal - why'd he have to lie about it.

[SpankyMcFarland]

Mistakes were made, we looked foolish for a moment on the world stage…and then everybody else forgot about Canada again. I want to see fixes for the numerous serious problems we face as a country. We all have some version of that list.

[OftenWrong]

Actually feel quite sorry for Hunka. People who know the history of the war understand, they fought with the Nazis to defeat the soviets. You were either on one side or another. BTW there is no way that Zelensky didn't know this when he was introduced to Hunka in the HOC.

Hunka led a quiet life until one day he was asked by his local MP to participate in the ceremony for Zelenski. Poor f*cker. He was 98 years old. He had no idea what was coming. I heard his family was not aware of this invite. Had they been, they might have told him to decline.

Now, people are looking to have him extradited to face charges in a European court room.

Poland's education minister says he's 'taken steps' to extradite Yaroslav Hunka

Russian authorities request extradition of 98-year-old SS veteran Yaroslav Hunka from Canada

 

Also,

"Mr. Hunka did not keep his role in the Ukrainian SS division secret. Thirteen years ago, he wrote an essay about his time in the SS unit for an American online magazine focused on Ukrainian war veterans. He says he volunteered at the age of 18 out of a sense of duty to protect his homeland from the Soviets."
- Globe and Mail

So Mr. Trudeau has completely pooched this guy. Another Liberal kiss of death.

Although, there is no recent news about this that I can find. No doubt Liberals are seeing to it that this be kept as quite as possible, to protect Dear Leader.

And another leftie trying out the "please don't look at the man behind the curtain" routine

Why - he fired his speaker over it and did the same thing but hey - why are you guys even talking about it? It's so small!!!

The prime minister of canada invited a nazi for awards and lunch. Which is bad. He then pretended he had nothing to do with it and fired his speaker over it.  That's horrible. Now we've found out he was lying and yet wont' take responsiblity.  That's a big deal.

LOL the man is 98 year old.

Anyway what's your problem with Ukrainians who served under the Nazis in WW2 anyway, why do you hate right wing anticommunists?

It is regrettable but you’ll get over it. No doubt you’ll bring the same crusading zeal to every mistake PP makes. The events involved are now half way between us and Confederation. I would rather focus on the problems of today, at home especially and in Ukraine. BTW who has ever bothered to ask whether Soviet vets in this country committed war crimes? Many of their comrades certainly did as they swept across Europe, leaving ruin in their wake.

So what? 

You don't think that an actual WWII Nazi war criminal from Ukraine would want to meet up with an actual Ukrainian Nazi unit that's back to committing war crimes?

It's not like there are dozens of them in various countries around the world. Only Ukraine has them, so Hunka didn't have a lot of people to share his stories with over the last 50 years, and I'm sure that a new Nazi group would appreciate some pointers from an OG scumbag.

I actually do think that there's a good chance Hunka reached out to them at some point.

The SS are all war criminals, dummy. Every last God-damned one of them.

You obviously have no clue what the SS did (no I'm not at all shocked to find out how ignorant you are on yet another topic) or you'd know that there's no excuse.  

Gawd you're vile little piece of crap.

So you'd support telling the first nations to be quiet about the residential schools and move on right? I mean - that's ancient.

Some events remain important for quite a while as it turns out
