It's Embarrassing Because the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada was a Nazi

It appears that the Canadian government want to prevent a release of a list of Nazi war criminals who were admitted to Canada post war because it might, "Prove embarrassing," to our neighbor to the north.

Given that an Ukrainian Nazi SS member was honored in parliament on live TV, I do not think that the government could be any more embarrassed, nor that they would be subject to any litigation, sovereign immunity being what it is.

What is really going on here is that it's current Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland's grandfather is arguably the most prominent Nazi war criminal admitted during that time, who did exactrly the same thing that Julius Streicher was hung for after the Nuremberg trials.

A list of 900 alleged Nazi war criminals who fled to Canada could remain secret as federal officials come under increasing pressure to censor the records because they could prove embarrassing to this country.

Library and Archives Canada in Ottawa consulted in June and July with what it called a “discrete group of individuals or organizations” about whether the list should be made public, according to documents obtained by the Ottawa Citizen.

Those consulted included members of Canada’s Ukrainian community, records show, but Library and Archives Canada, also known as LAC, did not include Holocaust survivors nor Holocaust scholars who had advocated for a full release of the list of alleged Nazi war criminals, Jewish and Holocaust academics say.

Of course they did not contact any Holocaust survivors or scholars.  The reason for the consultation was to create an excuse to suppress the information, because it exposes a current senior member of the government well deserved opprobrium.

Freeland has been lying about her grandfather, Michael Chomiak, and her specific knowledge about the actions of her grandfather, for decades.

The reason that the government wants this suppressed is that either Michael Chomiak's name is on the list, or people will start asking why Michael Chomiak's name is not on the list.

Some of the individuals and organizations consulted by LAC argued against releasing any of the information, warning it could be embarrassing or lead to prosecutions of the alleged war criminals.

“A few stakeholders were concerned that the release of the report would result in new legal action (criminal prosecution, citizen revocation, or otherwise) being brought against the individuals named in the report,” a summary of the library’s discussions noted.

Trying Nazi war criminals, and for that matter, trying ALL war criminals is a good thing, not something to be avoided.

We are not talking about people who were silent when this was happening, we are talking about people who were actively supporting and in some cases committed war crimes on behalf of the Nazis.
