Welland will mark Franco-Ontarian Day with a flag-raising ceremony at Civic Square tomorrow.

The event begins at 11:30 a.m.

Welland is one of Ontario’s designated Francophone communities, and city officials say the day is a chance to celebrate the culture, history and contributions of French-speaking residents.

The city has also received congratulations from Ontario’s Minister of Francophone Affairs for its continued support of the local Francophone community.
