2025 Day of Mourning - Welland

Workers are killed by workplace hazards every day. Every year, hundreds of thousands more suffer injury or illness because of their working conditions. They are not forgotten.

April 28 is our National Day of Mourning to remember workers who have suffered work-related disability, disease and death. The Canadian Labour Congress first declared the Day in 1986. More than 100 countries now observe the Day too.

This is the seventh event the Niagara Regional Labour Council will hold this day, at the Memorial located next to the Welland Canal at Merritt Park, 151 King St.
