    Canada seems to be having a moment with this one. Standing ovation for an open Waffen-SS veteran in parliament was a bad look…

      Tl:dr for those who don’t know: the Canadian House Speaker invited, alongside Zenlenskyi, Yaroslav Hunka to the parliament, which prompted a standing ovation. Sounds like nobody vetted him, as it turns out he’s, as you mentioned, a veteran of the 1st Galizien (volunteer division lol).

      I can’t believe the guy showed up. He could be deported. Oh well. 🤷‍♂️
