woodstockpolice - It's National Poison Prevention Week. Each year, 4,000 Canadians lose their lives due to poisoning and 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 Canadian homes, it is important to know how to safely store them. If you suspect a poisoning has occurred, contact the Ontario Poison Centre immediately and in the event of a loss of consciousness or difficulty breathing, call 911.
