This omission should raise \u200dserious questions about the motives behind celebrating such\u200b an individual.<\/p>\n<p>Hunka&#8217;s \u200dWaffen-SS unit, consisting of ethnic \u200cUkrainians, has\u200b been accused of committing heinous war \u2064crimes. Visited by SS leader Heinrich Himmler \u2064in 1944, the unit has\u200c been linked to the\u200c killing\u200b of Polish and Jewish \u2064civilians.\u200d Himmler, the man responsible for\u200d the Nazis&#8217; concentration camps, was a central figure in the \u2062Nazi regime.<\/p>\n<p>Multiple Waffen-SS units have\u200c been proven to have \u2063committed numerous war crimes during \u200bWorld \u2063War II. These include the infamous Oradour-sur-Glane massacre,\u200b the Marzabotto massacre, and\u2064 the Malmedy massacre. Their\u200c actions go against the principles of humanity \u2062and decency, making any\u2062 celebration\u2062 or acknowledgment of their members deeply unsettling.<\/p>\n<p>The Canadian Parliament&#8217;s decision\u200b to honor Hunka as a &#8220;Ukrainian \u2063hero and a Canadian hero&#8221; has been met with rightful criticism.
