🎃 Happy Halloween! Choose a safer glow! 👻✨ Use battery-operated LED lights in jack-o’-lanterns instead of candles. They stay cooler and help reduce the risk of decorations catching fire. 🔥🕯️🚫 #OakvilleFire #HalloweenSafety #FireSafety #PubEd

#Recall: Do you drive a 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan? A software problem could cause the body control module to reset while driving and could shut off the ignition, causing a loss of power. If not fixed, certain controls may also stop working, increasing the risk of a crash.

🔥 Ashes and burned wood can stay hot long after the flames are out! 🚫 Never put ashes in garbage bags or store them in garages. 🪣 Use a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. 🏠 Store outside, away from anything that can burn. When in doubt, keep it out! #OakvilleFire

🚬🔥 A carelessly discarded cigarette can land on a neighbour’s balcony, igniting patio furniture, cushions or planters. 🏢 Living in a condo or apartment? Your actions can put neighbouring homes and residents at risk. Fire safety is everyone’s responsibility. #OakvilleFire
