Unveiled in Ottawa on December 12, 2024, the $7.5 million Memorial to the Victims of Communism honors those who suffered under communist rule and celebrates Canada as a refuge. Historians in 2023 flagged over 330 of the proposed names for potential Nazi collaborations, unverifiable details, or lack of Canadian ties, including figures like Roman Shukhevych and Janis Niedra. The wall will now display thematic content, such as the fall of the Berlin Wall, to focus on broader history without individual listings. The change highlights the tangled histories of Eastern European anti-communist fighters.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

The memorial's planned Wall of Remembrance aimed to honor 553 individuals who fled communist regimes. But concerns over Nazi and fascist links among many names led officials to scrap the idea entirely.

Neither Babar nor the Pakistan Cricket Board has responded.
