The grandfather of Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s deputy prime minister, worked for a Nazi newspaper that recruited for the Galicia Division of the Waffen-SS — the same division as Yaroslav Hunka, the Nazi who was recently honored by Canada’s Parliament.

Rota honored a former Nazi and resigned in disgrace as well he should have. But Freeland is not her grandfather and a familial relationship does not make her a Nazi.
Also, Ukraine is not Nazi. Russia is. That’s projection. And Russian propaganda.
