This is the Labour Day long weekend.

That means city facilities including the waste disposal grounds will be closed on Monday.

However, there is an exception to these closures, as explained by Mayor Colleen Smook on City Beat yesterday.

“One thing that’s not closed this Monday is Steelworkers, they are holding their annual Labour Day celebrations and BBQs and things for kids to do. That starts at 10:30 in the morning at the Union Building.”

Smook went on to say that the USW Local 6166 Labour day event is open to the whole community.
