'Fury as Trudeau REFUSES to release the names of 900 Nazi war criminals who fled to Canada after WWII: 'Justice denied'
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Justin Trudeau has sparked outrage after refusing to release the names of 900 alleged Nazi war criminals who fled to Canada after the Second World War.
Jewish groups have called the decision, 'disgraceful' and say it dishonors Holocaust victims and survivors.
The Canadian government is concealing the list of names amid fears it could be too embarrassing for the country, TNC reports. Large numbers of Ukrainian SS Waffen soldiers relocated to Canada following the war.
Officials said there are also concerns the list could be used as Russian propaganda against Ukraine amid Vladimir Putin's ongoing invasion of the eastern European nation.
The list of members of the Nazi-led SS Galicia unit was compiled by the Commission of Inquiry on War Criminals in Canada. llThe panel then met with members of the Ukrainian community and 'discrete group of individuals or organizations' to consult on whether the names should be released. But they did not meet with ant Holocaust survivors or advocates pushing for the list's released, the Ottawa Citizen reports.
The decision was met with disgust from Jewish non profit B'nai Brith.
'For decades, B'nai Brith & David Matas, B'nai Brith Canada's senior legal counsel, have fought for full access—only to face endless delays and stonewalling,' the organization said.
'Canada is withholding hundreds of Nazi war-crimes files from the public. This disgraceful secrecy dishonours [sic] survivors and denies justice.'
Bernie Farber, who is the son of a Holocaust survivor and a past member of the Canadian Jewish Congress, branded the decision 'a shameful blot'.
Jaime Kirzner-Roberts, senior director of advocacy and policy at the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre, also expressed anger.
