Day of Mourning ceremonies across the province are paying tribute to workers killed or hurt on the job. Halifax, Kentville, Lunenburg, Yarmouth, Port Hawkesbury and Sydney are hosting ceremonies.

Kings RCMP, GSAR teams doing training exercise this weekend
Kings RCMP and Ground Search and Rescue teams are doing a training exercise tomorrow. Volunteers from Valley, West Hants, and Annapolis teams will participate in a mock search for a 10-year-old boy and his grandfather lost in the woods. You’re getting a heads-up so you know the increased police and GSAR presence is due to this training, not an actual search.
