Canada and Iran have had no diplomatic ties since 2012. When tragedy struck near Tehran on Tuesday night, and 63 Canadians were killed onboard a plane that went down due to an apparent mechanical failure, the cost of cutting those cords was felt deeply in Canada's Iranian community as families scrambled for scraps of information.
