Dear CCI Friends and Colleagues,
We all walk different paths in life and we all have the right to our own thoughts, opinions and beliefs. There are times however when facts are indisputable and one example is the real history of WWII.
Included is an article reflecting the current attitude of some towards that history and the growing, united response to those who are attempting to distort and re-write that history.

Jews, Poles, & Russians Have United To Condemn Canada For Glorifying A Literal Nazi
September 25, 2023
By Andrew Korybko
In one fell swoop, Trudeau discredited himself as a so-called “champion of human rights”, while Zelensky proved beyond any doubt that an ethnic and practicing Jew can indeed glorify the Nazis’ genocidal allies despite having family who were murdered in the Holocaust.
Jews, Poles, and Russians have oftentimes been on separate sides of historical disputes, which is why it’s so important to point out how they’ve all united over the weekend. What brought these separate groups together is their shared disgust at Canada’s glorification of a literal Nazi. Parliamentary Speaker Anthony Rota encouraged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, his guest Zelensky, and everyone else to applaud Yaroslav Hunta, which they enthusiastically did, especially Zelensky who even clenched his fist.
It turns out, however, that Hunta wasn’t an innocent “Ukrainian-Canadian veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians” like Rota described him as but a member of the SS 1st Galician Division that served under the Nazis and genocided Poles. To their credit, Politico pointed this out and reported on the number of Jewish organizations that condemned this fascist ceremony, which Rota said he regrets but Trudeau has yet to apologize for he claims he didn’t plan it.
