The City of Oshawa will be lowering its flags to half-mast Wednesday in honour of the National Day of Mourning.
Flags at city facilities will remain at half-mast and the city will lower the Day of Mourning flag at City Hall in honour and remembrance of workers who have lost their lives of suffered injury or illness on the job or due to a work-related tragedy.
“National Day of Mourning is a time for us to reflect and renew our commitment to protecting the health, safety and well-being of all workers who serve our community,” says Oshawa Mayor Dan Carter, adding those who have lost their lives or have been injured in their workplace will be honoured on April 28.
