Residential schools trutherism/denialism is setting in on the Christian far right, probably surprising nobody.

Can anyone tell me what the 1st Ukrainian Division is? Searching it on google gives me a Waffen SS unit called the 1st Galician. Did the Canadian parliament just salute a Waffen SS collaborator?
