"There is always a pressure to reduce costs in the fire department by city management. We need to change the perception that the fire service costs a lot of money, to that our fire service provides good value," - Larry Thomas, Deputy Chief @BCFireChiefs #BCFireLeadership #BCPFFA – at Victoria, British Columbia

A great read that brings to light the dangers these chemicals carry. Read the report chemical companies don’t want you to understand. These chemicals are killing fire fighters vancouversun.com/news/local-…

Even if you haven’t been following the Provincial Health Officer’s direction on social distancing, now is the time for every British Columbian to do so.
Do it for the ones you love. Do it for the ones you don’t know. We need everyone together in this response.

I love promotional ceremonies!
Formal, distinguished recognition of the achievements of our @VanFireRescue members in front of their peers, family & friends.
Except Lt. Ferris, of course. He’s a hugger.
