      It did happen, but they didn’t know he was a Nazi at the time. Has nothing to do with Putin either, just someone trying their best to discredit Trudeau.

        It does really say something altogether else when members of the Canadian parliament cannot put together in their brains what it means when you “fought against the Russians” during world war 2.

        You say Canadian parliament invite people without any background checks about them? Not to mention Trudeau met him before.

        No, you might maybe excuse some of the parliamentarists (which also tell volumes about their laziness, indifference and maybe flat out stupidity, all three a damning things for their position), but they did invited a nazi knowingly and organised an ovation for him.

      Nothing. Trudeau blamed “Russia Propaganda,” for the fuck up of his own office inviting a SS officer to Parliament. It was both stupid and surreal for him to do so. I watched the Press conference where he did that.

      It seems to be his recent catch-all excuse for a number of things.
