Fire safety hazards
If your food burns when cooking, always use the exhaust fan above the stove, open windows and, if possible, balcony doors. Do not open the door to the hallway to vent smoke, as this will set off the building alarm and cause a false alarm.
Haddii cuntadaadu gubato markaad karinayso, mar walba isticmaal marawaxada qiiqa ee ka koraysa shooladda, fur daaqadaha iyo, haddii ay suurtogal tahay, albaabada balakoonka. Ha furin albaabka hoolka si uu qiiqa uga baxo, waayo tani waxay daari doontaa digniinta dhismaha oo waxay sababi doonto digniin been ah.
Si se quema comida cuando cocina, siempre debe usar el extractor de aire que se encuentra encima de la estufa, al igual que abrir las ventanas y, de ser posible, las puertas del balcón. No debe abrir la puerta que da hacia el pasillo para ventilar el humo, ya que esto activará las alarmas del edificio y generará una falsa alarma de incendio.
如果在烹飪時食物燒焦，請務必使用爐灶上方的排氣扇，打開窗戶，如果可能的話，打開陽台門。不要打開通往走廊 的門來排煙，因為這樣會觸發大樓警報並引發誤報。

Never feed wildlife Environmental Health Unit (EHU)
Under Toronto’s Animal Bylaw, you are not allowed to feed wildlife or leave food out to attract animals.
When food is left out for wildlife, it can attract pests like mice, rats, and raccoons. This can attract other larger animals, like coyotes and foxes.
When you feed wild animals, they will stop searching for food naturally. Human food is very unhealthy for them.
Wild animals often carry diseases that can be dangerous to humans, like rabies. They also carry parasites like fleas and ticks. These pests can attach themselves to humans.
If you see someone feeding wildlife in or around your building, contact your superintendent or the Client Care Centre at 416-981-5500 to report it.
EHU and TCHC will work in partnership with tenants to keep units and buildings pest-free.
