Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently announced that next Monday (Sept. 19) will be a national holiday and day of mourning for federal workers across Canada as Queen Elizabeth II is buried in England.
Queen Elizabeth II served as Queen of the United Kingdom, Canada and the Commonwealth for 70 years until her death on Sept. 8 at the age of 96.
While only federal workers will get the day off on Sept. 19, Halton residents may be wondering what exactly will be closed that day.
