Think back 30 years, to 1996. How old were you? Were you in school? Starting your first job? Caring for young children? Maybe you were just born. For many Canadians, 30 years ago feels like yesterday. The last government-run Residential School in Canada closed in 1996. (1/3)

(1/2) Tourism is where memories are made. ✨ It’s the first paddle on a lake in Muskoka. A late-night bite in Toronto. A walk on the beach of Wasaga. Fall colours along the trails in Algonquin Park. A weekend festival in Kingston, Ottawa or Niagara-on-the-Lake.

One person wears a dark jacket and the other wears a light blue shirt. Text on the image reads “Creating memories in Ontario,” with the Protect Ontario shield logo displayed in the bottom corner.

Feeling dizzy? Nauseous? Don't blame it on last night's tacos, 🌮 it could be carbon monoxide poisoning! Know the symptoms. CO laws change on Jan. 1, 2026 - make sure you have working CO alarms on every level of your home. #COAwarenessWeek2025
