The Ford government is honouring the 57 Canadians killed in the downing of flight PS752 over the skies of Tehran.
Premier Ford will formally announce this morning the creation of 57 new post secondary scholarships.
In a statement, the Premier says the scholarships will be valued at $10,000 each.
Over a dozen Ontario post secondary institutions lost students or faculty when the plane was shot down in Iran last Wednesday.
The scholarships will begin in the 2021-22 academic year.
