Although a Canadian inquiry was launched and completed, many questions remain unanswered. Relatives still struggle to understand how it happened. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2444160\" data-originallang=\"en\">Today our hearts go out to each and every one of them. On the anniversary of this atrocity, I stand here asking all parties in the House to join together in remembrance of the victims and their families.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2444161\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canadian, British and Indian citizens perished on that flight, but countries all over the world mourn them today.</p>",
