#KeyDriver for the creation of the #IFMO: the lack of #fire and #emergency data collected in a systematic and comprehensive manner that would allow First Nations to determine how to make their communities safer. #FNFireSafety #FirstNations #FireSafety #FirePrevention @Min_IndServ

I am calling on the Premier and the Ontario Government to introduce changes to the Ontario Building Code to require fire sprinklers in all new residential construction. It's time. https://t.co/7i28nVmj3K

Before you park on the side of the street, ask yourself one question: Can a fire truck get through. No? Then don't park there.

Cancellations are starting to pop up across NS for tomorrow already. Be sure to follow your local agencies to get the latest information.

With all the drifting going on right now it's important to check your furnace vents (intake and exhausts) while out shoveling.

Keep vents for furnaces and heating appliances free of ice, snow, and debris to prevent deadly carbon monoxide poisoning.

Help fire crews help you. Lend a hand clearing hydrants so crews can work faster in a real emergency situation.

Big thanks to our employees, fellow first responders & snow removal crews for all of their hard work keeping us safe this weekend! #NSStorm

[Harold Pothier @pothiehj]

To all my followers, Happy New Year, stay safe. All the best to those emergency responders who work to keep us safe each day

A Christmas tree can require up to 4L p/day! Water frequently if you chose a real tree & ensure safety. Enjoy the holidays @oakvillefire https://t.co/SazDpvpjrC

[Ministry of the Solicitor General @ONsafety]

Dry trees can cause fire. #HolidaySafety tip: Water fresh Christmas trees daily & keep them away from fireplaces, heaters or candles #ONsafe

[Halifax Fire @hfxfire]

On the 4th day of holiday fire safety... it's tempting to overload electrical outlets at this time of year, but don't do it!
