Davis Day, also known as Miners' Memorial Day is an annual day of remembrance observed on June 11 in coal mining communities in Nova ScotiaCanada, whereby citizens recognize all miners who were killed on the job in the province. It was named in remembrance of William Davis who was shot by police during a coal mining strike near New Waterford, NS.

My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of those killed or injured in the brutal attack at Pulse Nightclub, a gay bar in Orlando Florida.

As a member of the GLBT community, I speak for myself and my partner, and offer our sincere condolences for those killed and wish a speedy recovery to those injured.

 

In solidarity,
Wayne Kelley
Director for GLBT Members, PSAC-Atlantic
