Dear members,

The Alberta Regional Council of Carpenters and Allied Workers received the following letter from the General Presidents’ Maintenance Committee for Canada/National Maintenance Council for Canada regarding the Day of Mourning for Queen Elizabeth II. For your information and awareness.

TO:  GPMC/NMC Employers
FROM:  Brett McKenzie
CC:  Members of the GPMC/NMC
DATE:  September 15, 2022
RE:  September 19, 2022 Day of Mourning for Queen Elizabeth II

Dear Participants:

Earlier this week the government announced that there will be a National Day of Mourning on September 19th to honor the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

To date this holiday has not been proclaimed through legislation, and therefore September 19th is not a recognized holiday under the General Presidents’ Maintenance Agreements and National Maintenance Agreements operating within the province.

Please advise if you have any questions.

Regards,
Brett McKenzie
Executive Director
