Sound effects from machinery mixes with slow, somber music. |
There’s a row of lockers that are used by construction workers.
There are hard hats on top, safety vests and jackets in the lockers, and some of the locker doors are open. |
I know all dads are proud of their kids, but Manny was next level.
Every shift he had a new photo to show me.
I feel like I know his little ones. |
The camera starts to move closer to the lockers and there’s a piece of construction paper taped to the inside of one of the locker doors. |
Then he died at work...
I just keep thinking of those kids and everything he'll miss. |
The construction paper comes into focus – it’s a child’s drawing of a construction worker with the word “Daddy” written above the figure. |
On April 28th we remember all those who suffered a workplace death injury or illness. | A memorial wreath of flowers starts to appear and the drawing fades away. The words “Day of Mourning” appear across the wreath, like a sash. The WSIB logo appears at the bottom of the wreath, and a yellow Day of Mourning ribbon attaches itself to the logo. |
And all those left behind. |
The words “April 28” and the url wsibdayormourning.ca appear at the bottom of the screen. |
