The records involve a U.S. program set up after the Second World War to secretly settle large numbers of Nazi war criminals in Canada, often with the support of Canadian officials.

    I don’t have a horse in this race, but “sins of our fathers” is a pretty problematic argument for tracking/flagging someone imo.

    Are any of these people even still alive?

      I feel like being part of a supremacist movement today becomes the sins of the individual rather than the father, and unfortunately, Canada has a few of those around at the moment.

      And, yes, they can be alive today. Our MPs unknowingly applauded a Nazi collaborator in Parliament a couple of years back.
