Even before last weeks tragic fire at a senior citizens residence in LIsle-Verte, Que., the province was already moving toward improving safety for Ontarios care homes.
Since the fire at Rsidence du Havre, it has emerged the section of the retirement home razed by Thursday mornings blaze lacked a sprinkler system and wasnt required to have one under Quebec law. That provinces government has already pledged to review all of its regulations with respect to sprinkler systems in old age homes.
Investigators are now reportedly looking at if smoking may have been the cause, though similar to Ontario, smoking inside the facility would have been illegal in Quebec.
Ontario Fire Marshal Ted Wieclawek declined to compare fire safety policies between the two provinces, but noted amendments to the fire and building codes were introduced here in May.
I can tell you Ontario is the first jurisdiction in Canada to institute mandatory sprinkler systems for vulnerable residences, he said, adding the new rules also include self-closing doors, enhanced inspections and staff training and a requirement to have safety plans validated by local fire services.
Under the legislation, which came into effect Jan. 1, all licensed retirement homes and most private care facilities will have five years to install sprinklers, although some care and treatment facilities, including public long-term care homes, will have up to an 11-year phase-in period, Mr. Wieclawek said, explaining the longer timeline for some sites will allow them to incorporate sprinkler installation into redevelopments that may already be planned.
Those deadlines were drawn up through consultation with various stakeholders, including the Association of Municipalities of Ontario and the Ontario Retirement Communities Association, he said.
Even so, Health and Long-Term Care Minister Deb Matthews announced Friday she may fast-track the legislations requirement to have sprinklers installed.
Since 1998, most of the retirement homes built in Ontario have been required to have sprinklers and the Retirement Homes Act mandates all information about if a given facility has a sprinkler system be made publicly accessible. Of the 700 retirement homes in Ontario, which altogether house more than 50,000 residents, about 60 per cent already have a sprinkler system installed, Mr. Wieclawek said.

SHEDS were broken into during a spate of crime in Long Ashton.
To send a link to this page to a friend, you must be logged in.
Between 11pm on January 11 and 4.30am on January 12 a number of sheds and outbuildings were burgled.
Now police officers are urging any bike owners to ensure their possessions are kept secure as they believe the thieves were targeting bicycles.
PC Peter Rooke said: Two mountain bikes were initially stolen but later recovered when the thieves were spooked attempting to break into another shed.
They had broken into both sheds and garages and appear to be organised with various tools to commit their crimes. It is unknown whether they were on foot or using transport.
I want to hear from anyone who may have seen something did you see anyone riding a bike during the early hours in Long Ashton?
As part of the polices crime prevention work, PCSO Laura Wheeler will hold bike marking events in the village throughout this year.

Scientists stumble upon evidence which points toward repeated use of fire by prehistoric humans for cooking meat and other household chores.
Archaeological evidence suggests that prehistoric humans started using fire millions of years ago. But researchers have long puzzled over exactly when humans learned to control fire and start using it in their everyday lives.

A new study suggests that it happened at least 300,000 years ago, in what is today Israel. A paper titled"Evidence for the repeated use of a central hearth at Middle Pleistocene (300 ky ago) Qesem Cave, Israel,"published by scientists from Israel in the Journal of Archaeological Science, describes a hearth in Qesem Cave, an archaeological site located about eight miles eat of Tel Aviv. The cave served as abase camp for early humansand the hearth was repeatedly used for cooking meat, according to a press release from the Weizmann Institute of Science.
Archaeologists found a large number of flint tools, used for cutting meat near the hearth area, as well as inside it. But a few meters away from the hearth, archaeologists found flint tools of a different shape, suggesting that they were used for a different purpose, Ruth Shahack-Gross of the Kimmel Center for Archeological Science at the Weizmann Institute, and one of the authors of the paper, told the Monitor.
The types of ashes and animal bones found around the area point toward the repeated use of fire. Overall, the discoveries point toward the existence of a social order very much like we have today, she says.
To arrive at these findings, the team used a combination of infrared spectroscopy and micro-morphology techniques. Samples collected in and around the hearth area were mixed with potassium bromide. The combination was then inserted into an infrared spectrometer. Using infrared spectroscopy, the team determined that the samples contained bits of bones and soil that had been heated to very high temperature. This indicates that the area had been the site of a hearth.
Dr. Shahack-Gross then carried out a test on the micro-morphology of the ash. A cubic chunk of sediment from the hearth was impregnated with resin, frozen and hardened in the laboratory. Extremely thin slices were then examined under the microscope to determine the composition of the sediments, she says. The composition of the ash revealed that the hearth indeed was used repeatedly over time.
"As far as we know, our findings indicate that this is the first evidence of the earliest formal built fireplace that was used repeatedly by pre-historic humans," Shahack-Gross says.
