National Day of Mourning March Scheduled for Dauphin Tomorrow
For the second straight year, a march will be held in Dauphin for the National Day of Mourning.
Dave Rehaluk of the Dauphin and District Labour Committee says there is a theme this year.

The National Day of Mourning -- a day to recognize those hurt or killed on the job -- is tomorrow. The march will start at noon at the MGEU building.
