Building Safety Month, Week 3

It's week 3 of Building Safety Month. Mike Holmes is of course the honorary ambassador for the month, and as an advocate for building better, stronger structures, he released a short statement today on his website regarding fire safety and awareness. From makeitright.ca:

It’s week 3 of Building Safety Month, folks. This week we’re talking about fire safety and awareness. I can’t tell you how important fire safety is. Thousands of people die every year in their homes due to fires. Most of them are children. When are we going to say enough is enough? This shouldn’t be happening at this point in the game. There are products that help make our homes fire resistant. Simple things like fire alarms, making sure they work and replacing their batteries every year saves lives. It’s that simple.
