| Description: | Ottawa Rocked By Explosion. An unexplained explosion of terrific force rocks Canada's capital city, demolishing three buildings and gutting others, in the ordinarily busy downtown section. Countless lives were saved because the blast came on a quiet Saturday, but property damage mounts over two million dollars. People including firefighters walk among the truly amazing damage; buildings and cars destroyed, many broken windows. Prime minister of Canada (?) | |
