Twyla Shannahan says she never should have been separated from her husband’s ashes on a flight from Alberta to Newfoundland.
The Alberta widow is calling for an investigation after Air Canada temporarily lost her late husband’s cremated remains after she was forced to place them in a checked bag, rather than carry them on board.
After waiting overnight for Air Canada to open, she learned the ashes had been sent to Montreal.
