City flags at half-mast for National Day of Mourning (Workers' Mourning Day)
April 23, 2025
The flags at all City of Ottawa sites will be lowered to half-mast from sunrise to sunset on Monday, April 28 to commemorate the National Day of Mourning (Workers' Mourning Day) for persons killed or injured in the workplace.
This day, to memorialize lives lost in the workplace and to resolve to prevent future tragedies, was officially recognized by the federal government in 1991 and has since spread to approximately 80 countries around the world.

The discovery, found below the site of a former Shell distribution centre and 18th and 19th century farms, could help shed light on the region’s little-known prehistoric period.
