Trudeau threw house speaker ‘under the bus’ over Nazi veteran ‘diplomatic disaster’: Conservatives

After House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota announced he was stepping down on Tuesday amid international controversy over a parliamentary invitation to a Ukrainian war veteran who fought in a Nazi division in the Second World War, Conservative MP Michael Chong demanded Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologize for the “diplomatic disaster.” Meanwhile Conservative MP Mart Morantz claimed that Trudeau “threw the speaker under the bus” but that the incident happened under the Prime Minister’s responsibility.
