      And if they do extradite him, does that mean they secretly like Nazis, or how does this work in your view

      It’s not a secret, Canada loves their Ukrainian Nazis. Extraditing a single Nazi would just be them caving to political and media pressure. For me to believe that Canada no longer loves Nazis they would have to put all the remaining Nazis on trial and demolish all their Nazi monuments. They would probably also have to reverse the Canadian law rejecting the Nuremberg trials and declare the Waffen-SS a criminal organization.

      Look up who Chrystia Freeland’s grandfather was for more interesting facts about Canada and Nazis.

      They’re not going to. If by some fluke they do, it means the Polish lobby in Canada is more powerful than I realized and more powerful than the Ukrainian lobby. If the Jewish lobby gets involved, then maybe. Seems like it’s not going to have much to do with how Nazi Canada is or isn’t, and more to do with the competition between various special interest groups and who happens to have more leverage at the moment.
