April 28, marks the National Day of Mourning in Canada. This day is sometimes called Workers Mourning Day. It commemorates workers who have been killed, injured, or suffered illness due to workplace hazards and incidents. People in Canada, especially workers, often light candles and hold a minute of silence in memory. This important day has been recognized in Canada since 1991. There will be guest speakers, a choir, and a piper. We encourage all to attend and pay respect to our fellow workers.
