Speaker Rota Resigns After Nazi In Parliament Row - Ottawa
Speaker of the House of Commons Anthony Rota announces he will step down from the position in the House of Commons, Tuesday, September 26, 2023 in Ottawa, ON, canada. The Speaker of Canada's House of Commons has resigned after inviting a Ukrainian man who fought for a Nazi unit to parliament and praising him. Yaroslav Hunka, 98, got a standing ovation after Mr Rota called him a "hero" during a Friday visit by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky. Rota has said he did not know of Mr Hunka's Nazi ties and made a mistake in inviting him to attend the event. Photo by Adrian Wyld/CP/ABACAPRESS.COM
