Nazi toy soldiers/flags on sale in Ottawa...

At Byward News in the market in Ottawa, a newstand sells a variety of toy soliders. One of their current displays is one of Nazi soldiers, Nazi flags, and a variety of marching Nazis. They have a small sign that says how reprehensible the Nazis were....but is this Kosher? Clearly they have the right to sell what they want...but I think this is particularly unsettling; and yes, this was on display during Remembrance Day weekend.

Looking closely at the photo reveals the white lightning bolt insignia of the SS divisions, who were certainly an army unit. I suppose it could be a ceremonial unit, much like the Scots Guard Marching Band complete with kilts & bagpipes.; 2:50 PM
