Former Edmonton journalist Duncan Kinney has pleaded guilty to vandalizing monuments dedicated to Ukrainian figures associated with Nazi collaboration. Kinney was captured by security cameras on August 10, 2021, spray-painting a bust of Roman Shukhevych shortly after midnight, and was recorded returning eight hours later to photograph the damaged site.
In addition to the Shukhevych monument, Kinney admitted to vandalizing a memorial site for the SS Galizien division. Following the incidents, Kinney reportedly contacted the community center where one of the monuments is located to request a comment for a news story he was working on.
