A few days after Anthony Rota invited special guest Yaroslav Hunka to Parliament Hill, he stepped aside as Canada’s House Speaker. This comes after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy paid a visit to the House of Commons, an address that was attended by Rota and Hunka. Shortly after Zelenskyy’s speech, the skeletons of the 98-year-old Ukrainian veteran had surfaced online, owning ties to WWII Nazis that spanned decades. Prime Minister Trudeau has issued an apology on behalf of Canadian Parliament, reiterating that Rota was solely responsible for inviting and recognizing Hunka before Zelenskyy spoke. The now-former House Speaker has also apologized for his errors in judgement. However, the biggest concern amidst the ongoing chaos is the lack of vetting that was performed by notable people in positions of power. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent is joined alongside Traxxion Strategies President Karl Belanger, ZeroMedia contributor Tasha Kheiriddin, and Postmedia columnist Warren Kinsella for this week’s Sunday Political Panel.
