Durham East MPP John O'Toole said last week that bids are being sought for upgrading stations on Highway 401 at Thickson Rd. and at the Bowmanville station located one kilometre west of Bennett Rd. The contract is for the upgrading of the building facilities and resurfacing of the pavement. - - "I believe that the project will result in better facilities to handle the inspection of commercial carriers," said O'Toole. The Clarington/Courtice Independent, Bowmanville, Saturday, September 26, 1998 State Farm Offers Free Fire Safety Materials According to Statistics Canada about 96 percent of Canadian homes have at least one smoke detector. But, consider these startling facts: • Almost half of all home fires and three-fifths of fire deaths occur in homes with no smoke detectors. • Your chances of dying in a home fire are cut in half if you have a working smoke detector. • There arc more homes with smoke detectors that don't work, than homes without any detectors. These poorly maintained maintained units create a false sense of security for residents. Because of these surprising statistics surrounding smoke detectors, and the fact that some simple steps may be taken to prevent the future loss of lives and property, State Farm has developed and produced the "No Doubt About it, Working Smoke Detectors Save Lives". This brochure addresses the concerns surrounding the lack of or improper maintenance of smoke detectors, and emphasizes emphasizes the importance and need for proper selection, installation, installation, testing and maintenance of these life saving devices.
