A secret list of hundreds of alleged Nazi war criminals welcomed by Canada after the Second World War, drawn up 40 years ago, should remain secret, the information watchdog ruled Friday.

The list of more than 700 suspected Nazi war criminals who settled in Canada has remained unpublished since it was drawn up as part of an official inquiry in 1986.

Okay, but do we know that there aren't people alive today who materially profited from these Nazis escaping prosecution? Like, a Nazi officer escapes with a bunch of gold fillings pulled from concentration camp victims, he uses that gold to start a business, and his family is still rich from that business today? That kind of scenario merits investigation, even if the original Nazi is long dead.
