Proclaimed Fire Prevention Week draws attention to Canada’s decade fire cost and losses. The period shows about 556 lives lost and roughly $120 million in property damage, with total estimated damages surpassing a billion dollars when indirect costs are included. The campaign urges checks at home, urging four million households to prevent fires and reduce future tolls.
