The province says it is improving fire safety for its most vulnerable residents by making automatic sprinklers mandatory in all homes for seniors and people with disabilities. Premier Kathleen Wynne says the government will force all older nursing and retirement homes to be retro-fitted with water sprinkler systems. But she didn't give a time frame for when the systems must be installed. The government plans to unveil the necessary legislation next week and Wynne says other amendments to the fire code will also be announced then.
