Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said 138 of the passengers on a Ukrainian jet that crashed in Iran, killing all on board, were connecting to Canada and offered his condolences on behalf of the nation

OTTAWA - Canada expects to play a big role in Iran’s probe of an airliner crash that killed 63 Canadians even though the two nations do not have diplomatic ties, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday.

Canada broke off diplomatic relations with Iran in 2012. Trudeau said Canadian Foreign Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne would call his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif later on Wednesday to underline the need for a proper probe of the crash. Italy normally acts as a proxy for communication between Canada and Iran, and the Ukrainian ambassador told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp that his government was willing to help.

Most of the victims came from Canada’s Iranian community. Among the dead were a newlywed couple that had traveled to Iran to get married as well as two professors at the University of Alberta.

A dangerous state can't enter into, said by a Chinese person lived more than two thousand years. Hope this accident can give the Westerns a lesson---not any regime can communicate (especially authoritarianism/ communism), nor any money can make from the two kinda states

Great Justin great

Canada has always opened doors to immigrants. Good neighbors of the north, we stand with you in dark times.

Is that a mustache?

resignations save lives!

He is more handsome, but does he got a balloon size diaper Nope.

Now a shooting at Parliament?

Wow... its possible Iran shot that plane out of the sky on accident and this guy gives his condolences for 63 dead Canadians!? It would be the end of the Ayatollah if they were American

Oh he actually decided to come in to work today, huh? How nice of him.

Okay and very much the right thing to do. Tomorrow, demand the black box from Iran and let them know you mean business

🕊🇮🇳🙏🌹❤

A true leader.

Mad at Iran yet for shooting the plane down?

Does Trudeau have access to the Black Box

May all the souls rest in peace. We need to conduct an enquiry the reason behind the crash. People responsible to be held accountable.

The attempt to exploit the victims of the Ukrainian plane to find this bastard an excuse to be under the spotlight of the media is very disgusting.
