Older adults face higher risks in home fires. Mobility, sensory impairments, or medical needs can make escape harder. Help reduce this risk by creating and practicing a fire escape plan with accessibility in mind. #SeniorsMonth2026

Toasters, coffeemakers, and microwaves should be plugged directly into a wall outlet—no exceptions 🔌 If you need additional outlets: • use a CSA/ULC-approved power bar for electronics and lighting only • make sure extension cords are the correct gauge for the device • never overload outlets or daisy-chain cords or power bars. ⚡️ Plug in the safe way! #ONFireMarshal #FireSafety

The long weekend means one thing - grills are back in action! Deputy Fire Marshal John McBeth would prefer the only investigation this weekend be whether your burgers are medium or well done… not what caused a barbecue fire. Follow these grilling safety tips to help keep the long weekend safe and enjoyable.

We've noticed too many drivers slow to pull over when we're driving, or moving too fast and too close when we're parked. When emergency lights are flashing, drivers must get clear and move over. Details: ontario.ca/page/driving-near… Thank you! #YGK #InFrontenac
