Need a new charger or cable? 🔌🔋
Just because a replacement fits doesn’t mean it’s made for your device.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions and use a recommended or original replacement. Off-brand charging cables can increase the risk of fire. 🔥

Lithium-ion batteries power many of the devices we use every day, but unsafe charging can spark a fire.
Use manufacturer-approved chargers, charge devices on hard surfaces and keep them away from heat.

Where you charge matters. 🔋
Never charge e-bikes, e-scooters or other lithium-ion battery-powered devices in doorways, hallways or escape routes.
Keep your way out clear. Think before you charge — don’t block your escape. 🔥

This memorial stands as a lasting symbol of remembrance and gratitude, ensuring their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
We are forever grateful, and we will never forget.

Smoke alarms save lives, but only if they're working. 🚨
Today, we launched the fourth annual Test Your Smoke Alarm Day at Fanshawe College, bringing together fire safety leaders, community partners and students to share a simple but critical message: working smoke alarms save lives.
As part of the event, we connected with post-secondary students, many of whom are living away from home for the first time, to highlight the importance of knowing their fire safety responsibilities and ensuring their smoke alarms are working.
Swipe through for key quotes and takeaways from today's speakers. ➡️
Then take a minute to test your smoke alarms, check your batteries and make sure your household is protected.

It’s Test Your Smoke Alarm Day! Take one minute to press the test button and make sure your smoke alarms are working.
A working smoke alarm gives you the early warning you need to get out safely in a fire. Don’t wait until it’s too late and encourage your family, friends and neighbours to do the same.
Press the button. Hear the beeps. Help save lives.

Today marks the 75th anniversary of the Centre of Forensic Sciences.
For three quarters of a century, CFS professionals have provided the scientific expertise that helps support investigations and strengthen Ontario's justice system. Their work is recognized for its excellence, impartiality, and commitment to the highest standards.
From fingerprint and blood analysis in the early years to today's advanced forensic techniques, the CFS has continually evolved to meet the needs of a growing province.
Congratulations to the scientists, technicians, administrators, and leaders, past and present, on this remarkable milestone and on 75 years of service to the people of Ontario.
Today marks the start of the 22nd Annual National Peace Officers Memorial Run from Queen’s Park to Ottawa. The Run is a powerful reminder of the dedication, courage, and sacrifice of the police and peace officers who lost their lives in the line of duty, and of the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.
As participants make their way to Ottawa ahead of this weekend’s Canadian Police and Peace Officers’ Memorial Service, we thank them for helping ensure these heroes are never forgotten.

Today, we honour the lives of Carol Culleton, Anastasia Kuzyk and Nathalie Warmerdam.
Their tragic deaths in 2015 led to the CKW Inquest and 86 recommendations to strengthen Ontario’s response to intimate partner violence (IPV).
To help those experiencing IPV, the OPP has modernized its Personal Safety Plan and added additional resources to support informed decision-making, safety planning and access to community services.
The OPP remains committed to a victim-centred, trauma-informed approach that prioritizes survivor safety and works to prevent future harm.
