Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said he will seek "justice" for those killed on board a Ukrainian passenger plane downed by Iran.
Mr Trudeau spoke in Edmonton, Alberta at a vigil for the 57 Canadians killed in the disaster.
The PM promised to pursue answers from Iran, which admitted its military shot down the plane in error, killing all 176 people on board.
Iran had previously rejected suggestions that it was to blame.
"This tragedy should have never occurred, and I want to assure you that you have my full support during this extraordinarily difficult time … you give us purpose to pursue justice and accountability for you," said Mr Trudeau, addressing a crowd of 2,300 people in a university gym.
"We will not rest until there are answers."
Mr Trudeau attended the memorial on Sunday, as a second day of anti-government protests against Iran's leaders erupted.
Iran's belated admission that it "unintentionally" hit the Boeing plane with missiles has caused outrage at home and abroad.
At protests in Tehran and other cities, there were chants against the leadership and reports of clashes with security forces, which fired tear gas.
The plane, en route to the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, was shot down near Tehran last Wednesday, shortly after Iran had launched missiles at two airbases housing US forces in Iraq.
Those strikes were a response to the US killing of senior Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani in a drone strike in Baghdad on 3 January.
Dozens of Iranians and Canadians, as well as nationals from Ukraine, the UK, Afghanistan and Sweden died on the plane.
Iran has invited Canada, Ukraine and Boeing to take part in an investigation into the disaster. Those responsible, Iran says, will be held accountable and prosecuted.
At the scene: Canada mourns

Pedram Mousavi and Mojgan Daneshmand gazed out from the photograph projected on the screen with wide smiles, looking like they had been caught laughing at a shared joke.
The "sweet couple" likely were.
Along with their two daughters, Daria, 14, and Dorina, 9, they were remembered for their quickness to laughter, their generosity, their full embrace of life.
The family of four were among the 13 victims of flight PS752 who came from the Canadian city of Edmonton.
A crowd of some 2,300 people packed into a university gym on Sunday to pay respects to those lost – family, close friends, colleagues, classmates – whose deaths have left a hole in so many lives.
Prime Minister Trudeau told the crowd that in their sorrow "your entire country stands with you".
A friend of Pedram's, through a letter read by his former student Hossein Saghlatoon, said the loss was "too much to bear".
He was looking forward to many more memorable moments with Pedram and his family, he wrote, "but alas, the cruel hand of destiny had some other plans".
What happened at Sunday's protests in Tehran?
After a wave of anti-government protests on Saturday, demonstrators returned to the streets despite a large deployment of security forces.
Riot police, members of the elite Revolutionary Guard on motorbikes, and plainclothes security officials were out in force.
In one apparently symbolic act rejecting state propaganda, video showed students taking care not to walk over US and Israeli flags painted on the ground at Shahid Beheshti university in Tehran.
In some social media clips, protesters can be heard chanting anti-government slogans, including: "They are lying that our enemy is America, our enemy is right here." Many of the protesters are women.

What has the international reaction been?
US President Donald Trump on Sunday repeated warnings that Iran should not target anti-government protesters, saying, "the World is watching. More importantly, the USA is watching".
In a later tweet, Mr Trump said he "couldn't care less" if Iran wants to negotiate, adding it will be "totally up to them but, no nuclear weapons".

To the leaders of Iran – DO NOT KILL YOUR PROTESTERS. Thousands have already been killed or imprisoned by you, and the World is watching. More importantly, the USA is watching. Turn your internet back on and let reporters roam free! Stop the killing of your great Iranian people!
