April 28th marks Canada's National Day of Mourning.

This solemn occasion commemorates workers who have been killed, injured or have suffered illness due to workplace-related hazards and incidents. The National Day of Mourning is not only a day to remember and honour those lives lost or injured due to a workplace tragedy, but also a day to renew the commitment to improve health and safety in the workplace and prevent further injuries, illnesses and deaths.
