Trudeau says Canada is sorry for fingerprinting and scrutiny of 31,000 Italian-Canadians during World War II.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday made a formal apology for the internment of Italian-Canadians during World War II. After Italy declared war against Canada in 1940, Canada interned more than 600 people of Italian heritage and declared about 31,000 as “enemy aliens”. Trudeau said in Parliament Thursday that those labelled “enemy aliens” were fingerprinted, scrutinised and forced to report to local registrars once a month.
