Holocaust revisionist Ernst Zundel dead at age 78

Ernst Zundel has died in Germany of an apparent heart attack, according to his wife, Ingrid Zundel. He was 78 years old.

Zundel, who emigrated to Canada in 1958 and lived in Toronto and Montreal, was extradited to Germany in 2005 and served a five-year prison for inciting hatred.

Zundel was famously convicted in 1985 under section 181 of the Criminal Code of Canada for “knowingly publishing false news,” after he published a brochure called "Did Six Million Really Die?” The conviction was overturned and later deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Canada.
