I hope PM Trudeau grants them permission to recover those parts.

As this is post war, would it still be considered some sort of War grave or memorial site?. At least find the body.

Just out of curiosity,if they find the cockpit/fuselage area and there are no human remains present,is it still a war grave?I would say no but I think I would bet the Canadian government would say it is.

Kudos to those folks. My NY diver friends tell me that Lake Ontario (the south coast anyway) is essentially opaque, as in can't see your hand in front of your face. And chilly to boot.
