FIRE SAFETY

Fire Smart Canada has many tips on how to stay Fire Safe this year. Please access and use their tips to keep your home and community safe this summer!

The risk of wildland fires is growing across Canada.

That can spell danger for our homes and communities – but there are steps we can take to protect them. We know that for 90% of homes that catch fire, the cause is falling embers.

Those embers can blow kilometres ahead of a wildland fire and ignite materials on or near your home. So, if you can prevent the spark from reaching your home, there’s a good chance you can save it. 

This fire season, you can help stop the spread of dangerous wildfires by taking simple steps that reduce the risk to your home. And help keep your family and your neighbours safe.

And remember, don’t feed the wildfires.
