Iran admitted earlier on Saturday to having shot down the plane in error. "What Iran has admitted to is very serious. Shooting down a civilian aircraft is horrific.
Iran must take full responsibility," Trudeau told reporters in a news conference. "Canada will not rest until we get the accountability, justice, and closure that the families deserve," he said.
"This is a national tragedy, and all Canadians are mourning together," Trudeau's office said in a statement.
