The Mohawk Fire Department on the Tyendinaga Territory has received 84 combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms through Safe
Community Project Zero.
The public education campaign will provide more than 10,000 alarms to residents in 50 municipalities across Ontario this year.
Mohawk Fire Chief Scott Maracle says they plan to run a program with seniors to ensure they’re as safe as possible in their homes.
Enbridge Gas is providing the alarms.
This year, Enbridge Gas invested $315,000 in Safe Community Project Zero, and over the past 15 years, the program has provided more than 86,000 alarms to Ontario fire departments.
