UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik), Lenka White – In September, Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old Ukrainian Nazi veteran who fought in the ranks of the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the Nazi SS during World War II, received a standing ovation from the entire Canadian legislature.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is effectively being a "hostage" to the Nazi ideology held by the descendants of Nazis and collaborators who emigrated to Canada, Russian Deputy Envoy to the United Nations Dmitry Polyanskiy told Sputnik.

"It's an open secret that Canada harbored a lot of former Nazi collaborators after the Second World War and these collaborators now have children and grandchildren, they have think tanks, etc. So, the Neo-Nazi ideology and extreme nationalism have, unfortunately, very much clout in Canada," Polyanskiy said.

According to the diplomat, the descendants of the collaborators, to a large extent, are holding the Trudeau government "hostage".

He explained that the Canadian Parliament's ovation of a former Nazi SS officer was just one example of the support, and that many secrets could be revealed if society dug deeper.

"These things are very widespread and Canada is actively supporting them. The things we saw in the Canadian Parliament are only a tip of the iceberg. If the Canadian society digs deeper, many secrets will be revealed," he added.

In October, the Canadian Parliament and Trudeau honored Yaroslav Hunka, an actual Nazi SS officer from World War II. Earlier this month, the Canadian Mission to the United Nations voted against a Russian-drafted resolution to combat Nazism.
