The Fire Chiefs Association of BC and B.C.'s Office of the Fire Commissioner have launched a smoke alarm campaign intended to ensure that every home in the province has a working smoke alarm, as part of a broad initiative to reduce fire-related deaths and injuries. Research done by Surrey Fire Services, in partnership with the University of the Fraser Valley, shows that almost 70 per cent of houses that caught fire did not have a functioning smoke alarm.
