Supporting Ontario’s fire services starts with showing up, visiting fire halls, and listening to the priorities of our firefighters. Today, alongside MPP Jess Dixon , I had the pleasure of visiting @KitchenerFire, @Waterloo_Fire, and @GuelphFire to listen and learn from the men and women who protect their communities every day. My message was simple: our government hears you, we will continue to take action, and we will always have your backs. @ONFireChiefs

Guelph Firefighters Backed by Provincial Union After City Violates Agreement - goo.gl/alerts/1HRxAT #GoogleAlerts

At the Ontario Fallen Firefighters Memorial, we gathered to honour the 54 brave firefighters whose names were added this year.   Each of those names — and all who came before them — represent courage, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to those they served.   Their legacy reminds us that true service is measured not by words, but by actions — by the lives saved and the communities made stronger.   Under the leadership of Premier Ford, our government will always have the backs of those who protect Ontario, and we will never forget those who gave everything to keep our province safe.   @fordnation @DepSolGen @ONFireMarshal @opffa @ONFireChiefs @TPFFA

Today at Central York Fire Station 4-5 in Aurora, alongside my colleagues PA @MohamedFirinYSW and MPP @ricbresee_mpp, where we announced over $746,000 through our Skills Development Fund to help @OPFFA deliver critical survival training to firefighters across the province. Through the Fire Ground Survival Train-the-Trainer program, this investment will ensure Ontario’s frontline heroes have the skills and tools they need to stay safe while protecting our communities. A special thank you to Greg Horton, President of OPFFA, and their members, as well as @cypffa 2511 and @CentralYorkFire, for their incredible support and welcoming us today for their training demonstration.

Crews packing up after a successful water rescue. Earlier this evening, GFD responded with the boat to Royal City Park at Gordon for a man in the Speed River. Firefighters used a Stokes basket to remove the patient and transferred care to @GWParamedic. #Guelph

Fire suppression crews are on the scene of an apartment fire on Westwood Rd. One occupant has been rescued and is being assessed by @GWParamedic. Please avoid the area.

The world needs more men like Chris Francescone, not less. Rest in peace my friend.
