Multiple Jewish advocacy organizations in Canada say that the resignation of House Speaker Anthony Rota is a necessary but ultimately insufficient response to compensate for the parliamentary recognition of Yaroslav Hunka, who served in a Nazi unit during WWII.

Michal Mostyn, CEO of B'Nai Brith Canada, and Michael Levitt, CEO of Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies, tell Vassy Kapelos that Canada has a poor track record in the past dealing with accountability and justice for Nazis, and providing the Deschenes Commission records into Nazi war criminals in Canada would be a good next step.
