Firefighters face a significantly higher risk of developing skin cancer, including melanoma, due to sun exposure and carcinogens encountered on the job. 🚒☀️
May is Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Month — a reminder to protect your skin, get checked, and stay safe. #FirefighterHealth #SkinCancerAwareness

Stay safe in the kitchen. Never leave the stove unattended and keep flammable items away.
Be alert—don't cook if you're sleepy or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Keep a pot lid nearby to smother flames.

🇨🇦🧵1/ Something big just happened.
Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney cut off economic and security ties with Trump’s America—no warning, no negotiation. Just a clear message: Canada won’t be part of MAGA’s world.

Please keep fire hydrants near your home clear of snow and ice. It helps firefighters locate and hook up our hose for water supply to save valuable time when every second counts! The City of Guelph

Sadly, most fire-related deaths in Ontario occurred in homes that did not have a working smoke alarm. To protect yourself and your loved ones, install smoke alarms on every storey of the home and outside all sleeping areas. #SmokeAlarmsSaveLives

OPFFA Secretary-Treasurer @bob_mccutcheon is leading an insightful session on 'simultaneous notification'. The data from 6 test sites rolled out years ago show incredible results: Ontarians who called 911 in life or death situations in these regions saw drastically reduced response times. That's why the @OPFFA and its members are advocating for this life-saving system to be expanded across all of Ontario. #OPFFA2024 #OPFFApriorities #firefighters #simultaneousnotification
