That said, rage bait is a bit harsh;
The event happened on the 22nd and I read about it on the 23rd or 24th, and at that time, I also learned about the Deschênes Commission. This is from an article 7 days ago:
The decision to allow about 600 members of the division to live in Canada after the second world war has long been a source of controversy in Canada, and was the subject of a government commission of inquiry in the 1980s into whether Canada had become a haven for war criminals. Members of the division were accused of killing Polish and Jewish civilians. The Nuremberg tribunals found the Waffen-SS guilty as an organisation of war crimes but not the Galicia division.
I’m in no way trying to excuse their actions, or whitewash, or whatever. My argument is the title of the article:
An important question that has been missed. How did a veteran of the SS Galicia division end up in Canada in the first place and he was not prosecuted?
Which is straight up bullshit; the question has been asked since the end of WW2 and has been answered several times.
