The Liberal government said a review of the memorial is "ongoing" to ensure it will be "compatible with Canadian values.‘’

    I’m hoping that the nazis’ names stay. It will help discredit the monument as a whole.

      just have to put little swastikas next to them so that people know exactly who these victims of communism actually are

        If I lived in Ottawa I’d be tempted to do unauthorized tour guide work at the monument. Pretending to do the whole cheery guide thing and going into the specific history of some notorious names. No charge of course. It would be my honour and privilege to do such work for free.

        Are the names on metal plaques or something? If we could get a stamp made, you could indent the metal pretty quickly and permanently, albeit loudly

      You are far more optimistic than I am. Here’s how I see it: 20 years from now that’s why it’s celebrated.

        Pretty much, though this is if the regime (the “tripartisan” Klanadian regime) lasts that long.
