Canada's main opposition party has demanded the resignation of the prime minister.

Conservative leader Pierre Polivray says that it has come to light that a personal invitation was sent by Trudeau to the ex-soldier of Hitler's army during the Ukrainian president's visit to Canada.

Polivray said Trudeau misled the House of Commons in September of last year that he had no knowledge of former Nazi soldier Yaroslav Hanka, while Hanka was personally invited by Trudeau to a reception held for Zelensky in Toronto.

The Conservative leader said that Trudeau had supported the resignation of former Speaker Anthony Rota in the same case, now Trudeau himself must admit that he is not fit for office.

Conservative Deputy Leader Melissa Lantzman also attacked Trudeau, saying Trudeau had been hiding the truth for months, while naming the prime minister on the invitation and blaming the speaker.

It is to be noted that the former Speaker Rota described the 98-year-old Yaroslav Hanka, who fought for the Nazis during the Second World War, as a war hero, for which the House members stood up and honored him twice.

When the controversy arose, the Speaker apologized and resigned. Let us tell that the Nazi army massacred the Jews.
