You are also encouraged to contact any member of the Provincial Executive if you have a topic inquiry and register on the OMFPOA website (www.omfpoa.com) to look for information and/or opinions from other Municipalities through our discussion forums and resource sharing.

We are actively comprising a list of all persons involved in Fire Prevention and Public Education in the Province.  To receive up to date information and assist with our communication distribution lists it is imperative that all your Fire Prevention/Public Education staff complete their Active Member Website Registration.  We’re very please to have over 900 active memberships registered through our website.

The Provincial Executive looks forward to your support without which we cannot achieve a unified approach to life and fire safety in the Communities throughout the Province of Ontario.

Stay safe,
