According to CTV News tonight, there is not much to be said regarding this apology.
Veterans groups are unimpressed; the statement of apology was made behind closed doors by a low level diplomat instead of coming right from the Prime Minister to our Prime Minister. Funny how the Japanese are still reluctant after all these years.
Veterans groups say that it would mean more if the Japanese people were actually told the truth once and for all; their wartime history is downplayed to the general populace.
