For 37 years, Canada has kept close guard on an explosive roster of names. Canada’s strong privacy laws and government secrecy have kept the report confidential, but a recent political blunder may crack it open. Now, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government is discussing whether the time has come to unseal the report. The deliberations began before the celebration of Mr. Hunka, said Anthony Housefather, a member of Mr. Trudeau’s Liberal Party caucus who has been the primary political proponent of declassification. But the episode has increased pressure on the government to finally act.

A video showing Russian President Vladimir Putin criticizing former speaker of the Canadian House of Commons Anthony Rota for praising Yaroslav Hunka, a veteran who served in a Nazi unit during World War Two, has been cropped to falsely claim that Putin was insulting Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. “Justin Trudeau just got called an idiot by Vladimir Putin,” read a post on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter. The video shows Putin delivering his annual speech to the Moscow-based think tank Valdai Discussion Club in the Russian Black Sea resort of Sochi on Oct. 5. Putin called the Canadian parliament's standing ovations to honor Hunka "disgusting," and said it showed Moscow was right to "denazify" Ukraine, Reuters reported. Vladimir Putin insulted Anthony Rota, not Justin Trudeau.
