Canada’s Day of Mourning was officially recognized in 1991, after being led by the labour movement and the Canadian Labour Congress.

Today, April 28 is observed in over 100 countries worldwide as Workers’ Memorial Day.

It’s not only a day to remember those we’ve lost, but a reminder to keep fighting for the living. At Cupe 1978 we believe all workers, everywhere deserve safe, healthy working conditions.
