This is something that is not advertised enough & can save homes & lives.
It's also the kind of thing that should be taught in #school & #work #safety courses, & as real life examples illustrating & making things like physics easier to understand.

With cold weather, it brings space heaters. They CANNOT be plugged into power strips or extension cords.

Plug space heaters directly into the wall outlet.

Power bars are not designed to handle the high current flow required by a space heater and can overheat causing a fire.

A good reality check against the #nuclearenergy industry's latest charm offensive, #GreenWashing & $$ fairy tales -a must-read:

Continued Propaganda About AI and Nuclear Power

@OccTranspo It's an ideal site for the new @OttawaHospital
Not too late, only a parking structure to lose, but they'll never change that. Too many developer deals already being cooked in the periphery.
An investigation into the TOH @JimWatsonOttawa
deal is overdue.

@ONenergy @IESO_Tweets Hey, nuclear is neither clean nor affordable, it's the most expensive, carcinogen-emitting & dangerous source. Cheapest & cleanest is wind, which blows night & day all across #Ontario & #Canada. Build mills & lines up North, in G. Lakes, Hudson's Bay & elsewhere ++faster.
#ONpoli

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

@RenewablesAssoc The Great Lakes & Hudson's Bay also provide large areas w/consistent strong winds night&day, w/out risk of land conflict & far from forests & fires. Installing, transmission lines & maintenance can provide good jobs up North + clean, inexpensive energy.

@JohnnyCanuckCDL @politics_w_sami That's exactly what a Russian operative would reply.

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

@politics_w_sami @JohnnyCanuckCDL "JohnnyCanuck" is probably a fake account operating out of St. Petersburg.
Canada has to smarten up about fighting foreign agitating & destabilizing efforts operating under cover of "free expression".
Our democracy not only needs voting reform, it also needs defending.

@HorizonOttawa @tm_kavanagh There's zero talk of getting $$$ back from RTG, Alstom & other crooks including City friends/contractors who didn't deliver quality, timeliness, safety, reliability...the essentials. Those are what make transit worth using (or avoiding).

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

@BrentToderian Sorry, but no, not necessarily: for many #Ottawa areas & schools it can be quite dangerous to walk or bike, particularly w/winter conditions (which can also do away w/the "healthier" part, depending on conditions & individuals). For ++ppl to do those, first safety must improve.

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

@picardonhealth @StJohnsTelegram @globeandmail Voting depends on information, & that's largely controlled by media outlets.
Isn't Postmedia owned by a foreign MAGA interest?
Editorial slant tells&influences.
Why doesn't this raise foreign political interference alarm bells?

Regardless of what this particular spill is, you need to take a real stand on the radioactive waste dump upstream. ☠️☢️ is already being trucked & gathered w/out operating license, much likely rolling thru our #Ottawa hwys!

#ottnews #ottcity #ottpoli

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

@511ONEastern What was spilled? Anything radioactive??
It's the main road to/from Chalk River, where radioactive waste & other ☠️ ☢️ is being trucked to & piled up...

Btw, how much is going thru #Ottawa Hwys?

@MikePMoffatt And of course this doesn't just undermine fair wages & enable very bad work situations: the yearly intake piles up on previous years' & it all adds to the affordable rental & housing crisis...

[OttawaCritic @OttawaCritic]

How many ppl are even aware that #Ontario #Canada is planning to build more very big nuclear reactors??
"Bruce Power...a new nuclear generating station...up to 4,800 megawatt...operate for 60 to 100 years."
