Investigation underway
Ontario's Office of the Fire Marshal and the Treaty Three Police Service are investigating a house fire that killed three people in Asubpeeschoseewagong Netum Anishinabek, also known as Grassy Narrows First Nation.
Calls for change
In response, the National Indigenous Fire Safety Council is pushing for more fire prevention support in First Nations communities, including a call for a designated "fire champion" in each community to lead prevention efforts and reduce the risk of future tragedies.
No further details on the victims, the cause of the fire, or a timeline for the investigation's findings have been released.
