Montreal man among Iran plane crash dead
A Concordia engineering student is one of the 63 Canadians killed in the plane crash in Iran. 176 passengers and crew have died all told; today will probably see a sad progression of tweets as the dead are named in the media.
The Gazette names three Montrealers so far.
Seems a lot of the Canadian victims were students and professors on their way back to Canada for the start of winter term.

Man, their visiting home at the exact time that Iran is launching missiles is one of those cosmic accidents that will stay with families. Being shot down by a missile is pretty much the last thing you expect on a trip back home to visit your grandparents and siblings and the rest.
