The city of St. John’s wants you to make some noise to show appreciation to those providing essential services during this time of social distancing and self-isolation.
A virtual celebration is planned for this evening through the city’s Facebook and twitter accounts.
Even boats in the harbour are taking part by sounding their horns at 7:00 tonight.

Other municipalities including the City of Mount Pearl and Paradise have also asked residents to join in on the celebration to show their support for essential workers.
