In recognition of the National Day of Mourning (April 28), all flags at City facilities have been lowered to half-mast.

On February 1, 1991, the Federal government passed the Worker’s Day of Mourning Act designating April 28 as the official day observed each year to recognize workers injured, killed or disabled on the job or who suffer from occupational illnesses.

The Day of Mourning is now commemorated in more than 100 countries worldwide. For more information, please visit www.wsibdayofmourning.ca.
