Canadian police are learning the story of WWII

The Ukrainians were ruthless killers torturing civilians, their own (Polish) neighbours. Even the Germans were terrified of what Ukrainian nationalists were doing in the eastern territories of Poland.
The Canadians built them a monument? Shame on you.

Graffiti on memorial to Nazi SS division now being investigated as vandalism

Graffiti on a memorial in Oakville to those who served in a Nazi SS division is now being investigated as vandalism instead of as a hate-motivated crime , but the region’s police chief is questioning why the monument exists in the first place.

Someone painted “Nazi war monument” on a stone cenotaph commemorating those who served with the 14th SS Division in the Second World War. The monument is located in Oakville in the St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Cemetery.

The division, made up of Ukrainians who pledged allegiance to Hitler, was part of the Nazi’s Waffen SS organization. Some members of the division have been accused of killing Polish women and children as well as Jews during the Second World War.

I live 20 minutes from there. It is a private cemetery off the main road hidden in the back of the property. Driving by you wouldn't know what it was.

 

The monuments in and surrounding Toronto are being vandalized almost daily now by protesters. When the police first saw this they said it was a hate crime as all the others are, and didn't know the history behind the monument. 

 

Btw, most of the members of the Waffen SS were Ukranian volunteers.

easy there no bashing the canadians eh

 

first of all it does not say in your article that canadians built or put up that monument all it says its in canada

im going to assume that seeing its on the property of a ukrainian church that it would be the ukrainian people that put it up? Maybe check facts before assuming.
