WHOOPS! Canada Includes HUNDREDS OF NAZIS On “Victims of Communism” Memorial (Jimmy Dore)

A new controversy has arisen in Canada surrounding the planned “Victims of Communism” memorial after historians pointed out that many of the World War II era individuals proposed to be honored had ties to Nazi or fascist groups. In response to public backlash and previous scandals involving the Canadian government unintentionally celebrating known Nazi collaborators, officials announced the memorial will no longer feature specific names and will instead include broader thematic content.

Jimmy highlights repeated failures in vetting, the political embarrassment for Canadian leadership, and the rising criticism that taxpayer money is funding a monument perceived that was not only supposed to be privately funded, but that WASN’T supposed to honor Nazis. Overall, Jimmy frames the situation as another example of political incompetence and the mishandling of sensitive historical memory.
