Colby Cosh: Of course it’s ‘news’ that Freeland’s grampa was a Nazi collaborator, even if the Russians are spreading it


Chrystia Freeland’s uncle by marriage, the son-in-law of Michael Chomiak, is J.P. Himka, a now-retired University of Alberta historian. There is hardly anyone else who could have been better placed to interpret and make use of the remains of Krakivs’ki Visti. Krakivs’ki Visti was a mouthpiece for the Nazi regime, created at the behest of Frank and the inner circle of the occupation forces. It is probably fair, although a little sloppy, to describe Krakivs’ki Visti as a “Nazi newspaper.” (“Pro-Nazi newspaper” would be better.) It is obviously proper to call Chomiak a “Nazi collaborator”.
