Flags to fly at half mast

Premier Roger Grimes said today that the flags at Confederation Building and other government buildings throughout the province will fly at half mast out of respect for those injured and killed in terrorist attacks in the United States.

"The magnitude of the death and destruction as a result of the events of the past 24 hours is enormous. Flying the flags at half mast is a symbol of the sorrow we all feel at the untold loss of life," said Premier Grimes.
