Some facts, since people keep trying to white wash what happened.

According to Wikipedia entire SS is considered a criminal organization. Anybody who volunteered for SS is a criminal, plain and simple https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffen-SS

The second part of the Canadian Deschênes Commission report, which concerned allegations against specific individuals, remains confidential and has never been made public.

Crimes against humanity committed by the Galicia division are well documented http://espritdecorps.ca/history-feature/whitewashing-the-ss-the-attempt-to-re-write-the-history-of-hitlers-collaborators

In fact, his Waffen SS unit bombed children at Toronto's largest Ukrainian community centre on Canadian Thanksgiving back in 1949. Few days on the front page, then never spoken of again.
