Looking back at the past 12 months, there certainly was a lot of down time for the City Fire Department. Along with the thousands of calls, they were kept busy with operational training, capacity building a full review of services at the request of council. Chief Simonds tells CHSJ News, he was thrilled to see members of his force iron out a new contract.
Chief Simonds adds although the fire services review took a great amount of time, it was over-due and helped highlight why they need the resources they have.
