Workers still on the job, retired or lost their lives while on the job are being immortalized. The model of a monument that will be erected near the Pavilion at Lily Lake has been unveiled. It honors workers of the past and present in bronze and one of the artist's, Fred Harrison says this piece serves as a symbol of optimism.


In the past 15 years in the Province, 14 people have been killed while on the job. Harrison says they will begin work on the monument right away and should be finished by September.
