Unattended cigarette likely cause of blaze, says Wasaga fire department The Wasaga Beach Fire Department says an unattended cigarette was the likely cause of a fire that gutted a bedroom at an east end home. Deputy fire chief Craig Williams said the lone occupant of the home on Meadow Lane was able to safely escape after she discovered the fire in the early morning hours of Oct. 13.... It took fire crews about 30 minutes to bring the fire under control in the unit, which is part of a six-unit townhouse in Parkbridge Wasaga Meadows development. Williams said the unit had a working smoke alarm. Williams said the resident was awake and had briefly stepped out of the bedroom around 4 a.m. Upon returning to the bedroom, she found the fire. After attempting to put it out herself using a wet towel, the resident evacuated and called 911. Williams said the occupant told firefighters that she believed she left a cigarette burning in an ashtray, and that was the likely cause. Williams said the woman made sure she closed any adjoining doors on the way out, which helped limit the damage to the bedroom and one washroom. He estimated the damage at about $200,000. He added the construction of the six-unit townhouse, with concrete separation walls, also limited smoke and water damage to the one unit.

Fall is the perfect time to be outdoors the weather gets cooler and stunning fall colours mean a lot of people will be outside taking part in their favourite activities hunters, hikers, ATV riders and bird watchers all share the forests and public lands in Ontario so it’s important to stay safe. Hunters are reminded to: handle firearms with care and attention at all times.... never shoot unless they are absolutely sure of their target and what lies beyond it. not shoot from a vehicle or carry a loaded firearm in or on a vehicle both are illegal. All hunters must wear solid hunter orange clothing (a minimum of 400 square inches or 2,580 square centimetres above the waist) and a hunter orange head cover during gun seasons for deer, moose and elk. This also applies to bear hunters who are not hunting from a tree stand. Hunters are also reminded to dispose of hides and entrails safely and ethically. Some municipal dumps may accept carcasses, but it is best to consult your municipality before hunting.

One bad decision can affect you for the rest of your life when it comes to dangerous driving. In partnership with Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, Operation Impact is a traffic safety initiative designed to remind drivers to share the road responsibly
