PROJET ZERO AIMS TO INCREASE SAFETY IN ALFRED-PLANTAGENET carbon monoxide buildup. Carbon monoxide alarms are recommended as a second line of defense to protect against the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Enbridge Gas Distribution, the Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council and the Alfred and Plantagenet Fire Department are partnering up to im- prove home safety. The goal is to bring fire and carbon monoxide-related deaths down to zero. This partnership is happening through Project Zero – a public education campaign that is providing more than 6,600 alarms to residents in 30 Ontario municipalities. The Alfred and Plantagenet Fire Department received 120 combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms through the campaign and &OCSJEHFJOWFTUFE JO1SPKFDU;FSP this year.

To the editor: I read this article with interest – thank you GPSTIBSJOHUIJTJOGPSNBUJPO*WFCFFODPN - muting from this area to downtown Ottawa for over 30 years and the whole situation gets worse every year! The fact that we have a two-lane highway all the way into Ottawa, in spite of continued new developments, and in spite of the volume of traffic is problem FOPVHI/PXUIJT I was shocked when the speed limit on a busy highway was dropped to 70 km per hour.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: STOP LIGHT IN WENDOVER “RIDICULOUS” I expect that the people crying about there being too much traffic are the people who EPOUFWFOIBWFUPDPNNVUFmUIFZKVTUVTF the highway at their leisure. There are few entranceways/driveways in the stretch in question and reducing the speed limit and adding a stop light simply creates more frustration, more stops and more occasions for accidents. A smooth flow of traffic is much more effective! around intersections. Give us some credit! My thought is that this is just one more TZNQUPNPGUIFQSPCMFNTJO8FOEPWFS5IF UCPR council is listening to a handful of residents, while the remainder of us are completely ignored. The UCPR is cliquish! It caters to the families that have lived here forever and discriminates against others.
The Council of the UCPR need to wake up, look around them and realize that times are changing! People are busy, people are DPNNVUJOHBOEHVFTTXIBU 8FBMMQBZ taxes and we all get a vote!
