CO Alarms Soon To Be The Law

Carbon Monoxide alarms will soon be the law for all homes in Ontario. A private members bill put forward four years ago by Tory MPP Ernie Hardeman has gained final approval in the legislature. Hardeman says the death of a Provincial Police constable and her family as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning spurred him to get involved. Currently, carbon monoxide detectors are only required in homes constructed after 2001.
