Very good piece on the #Hunka affair by Nora Loreto. #CanPoli
Also, a plug. Nora Loreto does great journalism, but her perspectives are not something our mainstream media likes to feature. Her book, "Spin Doctors
How Media and Politicians Misdiagnosed the COVID-19 Pandemic" is one of the best and most insghtful pieces I've read about our COVID experience. She could use support: so I encourage you to vist her substack page and subscribe! -
Appreciate the Forward's writing on this story which has been factual and to the point. Unfortunately I think a lot of the Canadian media is 1) too demoralized and distracted at the moment and 2) too invested in the politician personalities and horserace issues that they can't write a sensible article from a detached perpective.

not only was Canada a major #Ratlines destination for nazi collabos, but it had the *most* ignoble record of *all* the democracies in refusing entry to Jews fleeing nazi & fascist persecution. Tiny Uruguay admitted more Jewish refugees than Canada did.
There was literally a period when it was easier for nazis like #Hunka to get in to Canada than it was for Jewish refugees.
And this was by design, not by accident.
