Canadian broadcasters air Nazi anthem in lottery ad

Following the worldwide revulsion at the antics of Britain’s Prince Harry, who went to a fancy dress party in a Nazi uniform complete with swastika, now there are red faces in Canada. A Royal Canadian Legion lottery advertisement broadcast on radio and TV across Alberta inadvertently used a Nazi anthem as background music. The anthem, called the Horst Wessel Lied, calls for Hitler salutes throughout the song. Harvey Shevalier, first vice-president of the Alberta and Northwest Territories command for the legion, said that they were alerted to the gaffe by a military historian, but in addition to that there were a lot of other complaints. Shevalier said that members of the Legion “are very disgruntled or disappointed that it would even get out there without somebody knowing what it was.”

I take it you missed the Westminster New year event? The Pet Shop Boys performed that dodgy little number live.
