🚨 The Hidden Threat 🚨 Fire fighters risk their lives to protect us, but the danger doesn’t stop at the fire ground. Toxic PFAS chemicals in their gear increase their risk of cancer—making cancer the leading cause of occupational-related death among fire fighters in Canada.

Presumptive laws are vital in protecting fire fighters who risk their health to keep us safe. These laws ensure that if fire fighters are diagnosed with cancer, it’s presumed to be job-related—making it easier for them to access the care and benefits they need.
