In 1992 one of the worst mass murders in Canadian history took place in Yellowknife, the capital of Northwest Territories, in Canada. In the midst of what was already a violent clash between management and workers, a lockout and strike, nine men who were working as replacement workers died when their rail car hit a bomb. The end result was that a man would confess and then take back his confession. The bomb was deliberately planted and nine men lost their lives as a direct result of that.
