Last April, he stepped down as president after managing and leading more than 100 board meetings. He was always in favour of consensus in harmony to bring Tricentris and its projects to a whole new level.

Ronald Tittlit Province acts to upgrade homes: Crack newsroom@eap.on.ca HAWKESBURY | Ontario is taking steps to ensure residents of retirement and long- term care homes in Glengarry-Prescott- Russell are safe during fire emergencies, says Liberal M.P.P. Grant Crack. “The government is committed to ensur- ing that more retirement and long-term care homes in Glengarry-Prescott-Russell are equipped with sprinklers,” says Crack. Premier Dalton McGuinty has met with members of the Ontario Association of Fire Chiefs to discuss sprinklers and other ways to ensure fire safety. In April, Ontario created a technical advisory committee that will make recommendations on a multi-pronged strategy for fire safety that includes installation of sprinklers in retire- ment homes, long-term care facilities and homes housing vulnerable individuals, along with other measures such as train- ing, inspections and automatic door clos- ers. May 25, fire claimed the lives of two residents at the private Place Mont-Roc residence in Hawkesbury. Under Ontario law, the facility, which was built in the 1980s and passed a Hawkes- bury Fire Department inspection in March, was not required to have a sprinkler sys- tem. It is not clear whether sprinklers would have saved the lives of the couple who died after the fire broke out on the third floor of the building, O ntario Fire Marshal’s Office investigators have said. Since that tragedy, the government has expedited the study process to make sure the technical committee delivers its initial recommendations in the fall and has com- mitted to making sure more retirement and long-term care homes across the prov- ince are equipped with sprinklers.
