@JamesK_1312 Pretty sure this was part of the decathlon competition. These amazing athletes are not world class level in most of their events. However are truly world class in their own right. For those with critical comments. Would love to see you give it a try. 🙄

A big thank you to the guys ( Ryan Lloyd, Alex Gerzon, Sagar Patel, and Ankit Naik) from Bombay Frankies location in @TownOfAjax for dropping by @CityofPickering Fire Station 1 this morning and providing lunch for @PPFA_L1632 staff.

Happy 😊 #InternationalWomensDay  to all of our @CityofPickering @PPFA_L1632 staff members who who proudly serve our community and keep it safe.

Fatal fires rose last year and though fatalities are down from 2022, the increase in fatal fires is extremely troubling. Each death is a loved one and together we can lower fatal fires in our communities! Test smoke alarms monthly and practice a home fire escape plan. #FireSafety

A big thankyou to our @PPFA_L1632 firefighters who are working today away from family and friends to keep our @CityofPickering residents safe. Have a safe shift. 🇨🇦👩🏼‍🚒

Keep fire safety top of mind when heating your home this holiday season!

Leave at least one metre of distance between your heat sources (space heaters, wood stoves, and fireplaces) and flammable materials🔥

In Ontario, more than 65 per cent of injuries and deaths from CO occur in homes.

🚫Never use a stove or oven to heat your home
✅Ensure you have a working CO alarm adjacent to each sleeping area - for added protection, install one on every storey

#CarbonMonoxideAwarenessWeek

[City of Pickering @CityofPickering]

It's #CarbonMonoxideAwarenessWeek. CO is considered the 'silent killer' as it is an invisible, tasteless, and odourless gas that can poison and kill🚫 #PickeringFire is reminding you to get all fuel-burning appliances inspected annually✅

Stay tuned for safety tips all week!

[City of Pickering @CityofPickering]

#PickeringFire invites you to participate in Ontario's first #TestYourSmokeAlarmDay on September 28! Test your alarms by pressing the 'test' button and listen for the beep! If the alarm doesn't sound, replace the batteries. If that doesn't work, replace the alarm #SavedByTheBeep

Watch what you heat!

Stay in the kitchen when cooking (especially if using oil/high temperatures). If a pot catches fire, carefully slide a tight-fitting lid over it to smother the flames and turn off the heat🍳🔥 #FireSafety #PickeringFire
