I've toured multiple firehalls across ON to thank our #EverydayHeroes for all they do to protect us. I've learned first-hand about the precautions put in place to keep our firefighters safe, such as the appropriate way to sanitize uniforms after use. occupationalcancer.ca/2021/n…

Firefighters work in complex environments which can result in carcinogenic exposures, which can sadly lead to cancer diagnoses.  To support our firefighters, we've invested $6M in the Occupational Cancer Research Centre to identify causes of workplace cancers & prevent them.
