Township of Tiny has adopted a “Zero Tolerance” policy on smoke alarm violations.
“Failing to install and maintain these inexpensive devices to protect yourself and your
family members is completely unacceptable,” says Fire Chief Tony Mintoff.
As a result of emergency responses, several homes in the Township of Tiny have recently
been found to be in non-compliance with the Ontario Fire Code’s Smoke Alarm
requirements.
As a result, the occupants have been issued Certificates of Offence (tickets) in the amount of $235 for each violation.

Be safe make sure you have working smoke alarms and get a carbon monoxide alarm too. Lets all be safe on the beach. I replaced our existing smoke alarms (4 units), and added a carbon monoxide alarm for around $60.00.

A jewel of a provincial park Awenda
Visit Awenda Provincial Park
At Awenda, the Nipissing Bluff drops a dramatic 60 metres into Georgian Bay, providing varied terrain for the geography enthusiast, including boulder fields, cobble beaches, kettle lakes and sand dunes. Check out Methodist Point Bay for the most protected, sandiest beach, perfect for swimming. Once you’re finished splashing around, look across to Giant’s Tomb Island, where the spirit of Kitchekewana—creator of the 30,000 Islands and the five bays of Georgian Bay, according to legend—is said to rest. If you’ve brought your dog, Awenda also offers a pet-friendly beach.
