Ottawa: The Air-India inquiry could be the pivotal event that shapes the future of Canada's response to terrorism, says a woman who lost her husband and two daughters in the crash.
Lata Pada said families of the 329 people killed when Air-India Flight 182 exploded and crashed off the coast of Ireland on June 23, 1985, could now see "the bigger picture" that the bombing was an act of terrorism on a global scale.
Ms. Pada was granted standing yesterday to appear at the forthcoming commission of inquiry into the investigation surrounding the bombing.
"In today's climate of rising terrorism, I think the Air-India inquiry can be a watershed moment in alerting us to our preparedness against global terrorism," she told reporters.
