Nine people were killed after Israeli soldiers boarded the Mavi Marmara ship in May 2010. Canadians are set to board another flotilla this week. (Burhan Ozbilici/Associated Press).
A group of Canadians boarded flights Sunday to join a ship convoy that is going to try to bring aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
