Canada - Two Ontario Men Accused Of Being Nazi Guards

Canada - The brutal daily horrors of life in a Nazi concentration camp were described in excruciating detail in Federal Court in Canada at the hearing for two Canadians accused of working as Nazi guards during the Second World War.

Josef Furman, 85, of Edmonton and Jura Skomatchuk, 83, of St. Catharines, Ont., could both have their Canadian citizenship revoked and be deported if they lose their cases. The citizenship revocation hearing began after documents allegedly detailing the men's work histories were ruled admissible by the judge.

Historian Johannes Tuchel told court Skomatchuk's name appeared on transfer lists several times, suggesting he was trained as an armed guard at the Nazi Trawniki camp before being transferred to serve at a number of concentration camps.
