An Ottawa woman who had been overseas for years working with a United Nations agency was killed in Sunday's Ethiopian Airlines crash. Jessica Hyba had been working for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees in Geneva, Switzerland, for years and was recently reassigned to Somalia's capital of Mogadishu, according to the agency. "Both the United Nations and Canada have lost one of the best humanitarians. Ethiopian Airlines, as well as all Chinese airlines, have grounded their Boeing 737 Max 8 planes indefinitely in the wake of the crash. Canada's two largest airlines, Air Canada and WestJet, say they are confident in the safety of the Boeing 737.
