The National Day of Remembrance for Victims of Terrorism is observed in Canada every June 23. This day commemorates the anniversary of the bombing of Air India Flight 182, which resulted in the deaths of 329 people, including 268 Canadians. The bombing occurred off the coast of Ireland when a bomb hidden in a suitcase detonated, causing the aircraft to break apart at an altitude of 31,000 feet. In remembrance, all flags across Canada are flown at half-mast to honor the victims, many of whom were of Indian descent. This incident is recognized as the largest mass murder in Canadian history, with 86 children among the victims. The day serves as a solemn reminder of the lives lost and the impact of terrorism on communities.
