Injury Prevention & Safety

Information for Families

Parachute Poison Prevention Week, March 17 to 23, 2024

Each year, more than 4,000 Canadians lose their lives due to poisoning. Annual unintentional poisoning deaths have now surpassed transport-related deaths in Canada. With many potential poisons – such as medications, household cleaners and cannabis products – in and around the home, it’s important to know how to safely store these items and what to do in the event of a poisoning.
