   Canadian Jewish organizations and social media critics are slamming the   
   Canadian Parliament for giving a man who fought for the Nazis a standing   
   ovation during an event featuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr   
   Zelenskyy’s visit to the country.   
      
   "FSWC is appalled that Canada’s Parliament gave a standing ovation to a   
   Ukrainian veteran who served in a Nazi military unit during the Second   
   World War implicated in the mass murder of Jews and others. An apology and   
   explanation is owed," the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center, a Canadian   
   nonprofit dedicated to educating people on the Holocaust, wrote on X,   
   previously known as Twitter.   
      
   Video and photos show the Canadian Parliament erupted into cheers on   
   Friday during Zelenskyy’s visit to the country’s capital of Ottawa, when   
   Canadian lawmakers also honored Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old Ukrainian   
   immigrant who fought for the First Ukrainian Division, according to the   
   Toronto Star. That division was also known as the Waffen-SS Galicia   
   Division, which fought for the Nazis as its paramilitary arm under the   
   Schutzstaffel organization, according to the outlet.   
      
   "The fact that a veteran who served in a Nazi military unit was invited to   
   and given a standing ovation in Parliament is shocking. At a time of   
   rising antisemitism and Holocaust distortion, it is incredibly disturbing   
   to see Canada's Parliament rise to applaud an individual who was a member   
   of a unit in the Waffen-SS, a Nazi military branch responsible for the   
   murder of Jews and others and that was declared a criminal organization   
   during the Nuremberg Trials," the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center   
   continued in their statement.
