A fire in your home can turn into
a raging inferno faster than you
could ever imagine. If a fire
breaks out in your home, don't
waste time trying to save
possessions. Get everyone out
and away from the building as
quickly as possible, then call the
fire department from a
neighbour's phone. Never
re-enter a burning building.
A message from the Fire Marshal's
Public Fire Safety Council and your fire
department.
