On September 22, Speaker Anthony Rota recognized 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka as a war hero who \u201cfought for Ukrainian independence against the Russian aggressors then, and continues to support the troops today,\u201d CNN also notes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The announcement followed an address to the Canadian parliament by the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2023\/sep\/26\/anthony-rota-canada-resigns-nazi-parliament\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Guardian<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> states that Zelenskyy could be seen raising his fist in appreciation of Hunka. However, Zelenskyy himself is Jewish, reports <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2023\/9\/26\/canada-parliament-speaker-faces-calls-to-step-down-after-honouring-nazi\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Al Jazeera<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The article also states that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and other Canadian officials, were seen giving Hunka two standing ovations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">House government leader Karina Gould argued that Canadian and Ukrainian lawmakers alike were not informed of Hunka\u2019s invitation. Rota honored him on his own accord, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2023\/09\/27\/1201951754\/canadas-house-speaker-steps-down-after-inviting-nazi-veteran-parliamenthttps:\/www.npr.org\/2023\/09\/27\/1201951754\/canadas-house-speaker-steps-down-after-inviting-nazi-veteran-parliament\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">NPR<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> explained, and thus, the government was unknowing of the details of Hunka\u2019s life. Gould also noted, according to NPR, that she would have never expected to be asked by the Speaker of the House to celebrate someone who had fought with the Nazis: \u201cThis is very emotional for me. My family are Jewish Holocaust survivors. I would have never in a million years stood and applauded someone who aided the Nazis.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rota and all other government officials confirmed Gould\u2019s statement, in an article by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2023\/09\/26\/canada-speaker-resign-nazi-zelenskyy-00118191\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Politico<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, claiming they were not aware of Hunka\u2019s history until it was revealed over the weekend that the veteran had participated in the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS under Nazi rule. Rota said that he was very apologetic for the situation. Trudeau describes the incident as \u201cdeeply embarrassing\u201d for Canada, reports Politico. However, he has not apologized for his honoring of Hunka.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Following the reports of Hunka\u2019s involvement in Nazi affairs there were cross-party calls within the Canadian cabinet for the resignation of Rota. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/09\/26\/world\/canada\/anthony-rota-resign-canada-ukraine-nazi.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The New York Times<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the first call for Rota\u2019s resignation came from the leader of Canada\u2019s New Democratic party, Jagmeet Singh. Other Canadian leaders and academics including the foreign minister and the industry minister similarly urged Rota to step down. Lori Turnbull, a professor of public and international affairs at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, said in a discussion with The New York Times, that although it is understood that Rota made a genuine mistake, \u201cit doesn\u2019t matter. The point is that [Canada] is still the country that got Zelenskyy to applaud a guy who fought with the Nazis.\u201d\u00a0Foreign Affairs Minister, Melanie Joly, said she does not think there is any alternative to stepping down, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-us-canada-66930482\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">BBC News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Canadian parliamentarian for the New Democratic Party, Peter Julian, said, \u201cWe fully accept Mr. Rota\u2019s apology and believe that he didn\u2019t intend to cause harm but, unfortunately, there are very real consequences to his lapse in judgment.\u201d After meeting with party leaders in Ottawa, Rota officially resigned. Reuters reports that Rota has taken full responsibility for his actions. On October 3, Canada\u2019s House of Commons elected Greg Fergus as its new speaker. Fergus is the first Black Canadian to hold the role, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/International\/wireStory\/canadas-house-commons-elects-black-speaker-103705627\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ABC News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> states.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Polish Education Minister Przemys\u0142aw Czarnek has begun an effort to possibly extradite Hunka to Poland, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/2023\/09\/27\/poland-ukrainian-nazi-veteran-canada-extradition\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Washington Post<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The nation is working to discover if Hunka is responsible for crimes committed in Poland during World War II. Hunka\u2019s age and the fact that Canada does not have an extradition treaty with Poland will make the action complicated, The Washington Post explains. Canada\u2019s Minister of Justice and Attorney General refused to comment on the possibility of Hunka\u2019s extradition. However, he noted that the Canadian government had not yet received a formal request from the Polish government.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parl.ca\/diplomacy\/en\/speakers\/activities-and-reports\">Parliament of Canada<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On September 22, Speaker Anthony Rota recognized 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka as a war hero who \u201cfought for Ukrainian independence against the Russian aggressors then, and continues to support the troops today,\u201d CNN also notes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5576,"featured_media":12595,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2605,2571],"tags":[615,2614],"class_list":["post-12594","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-october-2023","category-2571","tag-canada","tag-speaker-rota"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
