Flags on 91ÑÇÉ« campuses will be lowered to half-mast on April 28 in recognition of the National Day of Mourning.
In 1984, the Canadian Labour Congress designated April 28 as the National Day of Mourning in Canada. Each year, Canadians pause to remember and honour those individuals who have died, been injured or suffered illness in the workplace. It is also a day to renew individual and organizational commitments to improve health and safety in the workplace and prevent further injuries, illnesses and fatalities.
91ÑÇÉ« will mark the National Day of Mourning by lowering the flags on its campuses to half-mast from sunrise to sunset on April 28. Members of the University community are encouraged to observe a moment of silence at 11 a.m.
