Canada decided today to suspend all flights by the Soviet airline, Aeroflot, into Montreal for 60 days to protest last week's downing of a South Korean airliner. The Canadian Government also decided to suspend plans to sign an agreement that would have allowed Soviet planes to refuel at Gander Airport in Newfoundland on a regular basis. The retaliatory measures were announced at a news conference held by External Affairs Minister Allan J. MacEachen and Transport Minister Lloyd Axworthy.

The Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, the nation's only medical school for military doctors, lies on 100 acres of tree-studded land at the Naval Medical Center in suburban Bethesda, Md. But behind the placid facade, the atmosphere is tense these days in the wake of two strong attacks on the school's programs. The most highly publicized assault began in late July when animal rights advocates disclosed that the school planned to shoot anesthetized dogs so medical students could practice treating bullet wounds. The ensuing uproar in Congress and the news media forced Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger to block the program and to start a high-level review within the Defense Department.

Paul H. Nitze, leader of the United States delegation, was welcomed with a handshake by Yuli A. Kvitsinsky, chief of the Soviet delegation, when he emerged from his limousine at the doorstep of the Soviet mission's villa.

Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger began a three-day tour of Central America today, saying he wanted to reaffirm United States policy in the region and see its problems first hand. ''I came just to learn and to listen and to see things as they actually are in the field,'' Mr. Weinberger said, muddy and perspiring after hiking several hundred yards into a dank Panama jungle to watch a live firing exercise by a squad of American infantrymen. Mr. Weinberger, who also plans to visit El Salvador on Wednesday and Honduras on Thursday, said the general message he was bringing to Central America was that ''the basic policies of the U.S. continue.'' He reported that he had spoken with President Reagan on Monday night about the trip and its goals. ''The Administration's commitment is complete,'' he said.

The Reagan Administration affirmed its commitment today to keeping marines in Lebanon despite the killing of two more American troops. The chief White House spokesman, Larry Speakes, said the President anticipated ''no change whatsoever'' in keeping 1,400 United States marines in a 5,000-strong multinational force that also includes soldiers from France, Italy and Britain. Mr. Speakes also warned the Syrians, who have been providing arms to leftist Druse militiamen, against ''instigating any violence,'' adding that the United States had ''considerable firepower'' stationed in the Mediterranean facing the Beirut coastline.

The Reagan Administration needs broad national support if it is to continue to keep United States marines in the multinational force in Lebanon. Unfortunately, President Reagan has thus far not reported to the Congress under the relevant section of the War Powers Resolution. This is a mistake. Domestic pressures on the Administration to withdraw the marines could escalate if, as is possible, the fighting in Lebanon continues and there are more American deaths and injuries. The War Powers Act provides the basis for developing broad- based support for American policy in Lebanon.

Following is the text of a statement read to reporters today at the White House about the presence of a United States reconnaissance plane in the vicinity of a South Korean airliner that was later downed: A U.S. RC-135 aircraft was in the vicinity of the Korean airliner on Aug. 31 when the airliner was initially detected by Soviet radar. Both aircraft were then in international airspace, and the U.S. aircraft never entered Soviet airspace. The U.S. routinely conducts unarmed RC-135 flights in international airspace off the Kamchatka Peninsula to monitor by technical means Soviet compliance with the SALT treaties. The Soviets conduct similar monitoring activities near U.S. missile-testing areas. The Soviets are aware of our flights and track them routinely. They know that our aircraft do not enter their airspace. The Korean aircraft's inadvertent entry into Soviet territory should have been an early and strong indication to them that the flight was not a U.S. reconnaissance aircraft.
