The Government of Canada provides office accommodation for 160,000 public servants and Parliamentarians working in more than 2,500 locations across Canada.
Prevention is the key.
However, we are also keenly aware that the best way to ensure fire safety is to work in partnership with others, and to assist the fire protection community at large in its efforts to reduce fire waste in Canada. Therefore, we work in partnerships with our service providers, other government organizations, and the fire protection community to ensure fire safety within Government of Canada buildings across the country. Our goal is to provide a safe working environment for the public servants and visiting public who work and enter our buildings on a daily basis. This poster was included in Fire Prevention Canada's Prevention kit which is distributed to fire departments across Canada through the offices of Fire Marshalls and Fire Commissioners. The kit is full of practical information that will help to educate Canadians on the importance of fire safety.
