We had a great time with Benny and his family, and were reminded of the courage and perspective he brought to all of us.
It was an absolute pleasure and honour to welcome Firefighter Recruit Benny to @Toronto_Fire. Benny showed us what true bravery and courage look like. His spirit reminds us to appreciate each day and find joy in the moments that matter. He is an inspiration to all of us. #Toronto

On behalf of @Toronto_Fire, I extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of PC Marc Pinizzotto following his tragic loss in the line of duty. We honour his service and sacrifice, and stand with our @TorontoPolice partners as they mourn this loss.
It is with deep and profound sorrow that we announce and mourn the loss of PC Marc Pinizzotto, 43, of our Emergency Task Force, killed in the line of duty today.
Marc devoted 18 years to serving the people of Toronto, including 5 years with ETF. He was a courageous officer, a respected colleague, and a man who put others before himself.
Today, a police family has lost their loved one, and our Service has lost a brother. The grief is immeasurable.
Our hearts are with Marc’s family, his loved ones, and his ETF teammates. Our members will stand with them, now and always.
A hero in life.

Today crews responded to an incident at an e-bike maintenance and repair shop near Spadina Ave & College St. The incident involved multiple e-bikes and lithium-ion batteries. These fires escalate quickly & produce hazardous conditions for occupants & first responders. #Toronto

On behalf of @Toronto_Fire, I extend sincere condolences to Commissioner Carrique and the women and men of the OPP. We honour the service and sacrifice of Constable Tarun Bali, and our thoughts are with their loved ones, and colleagues across the province as they mourn this loss.
C'est avec une profonde tristesse que je confirme que l'agent provincial Tarun Bali, de la Police provinciale de l’Ontario (Police provinciale - #OPP), a été tué dans l'exercice de ses fonctions cet après-midi à Hearst. Son courage et son dévouement au service des autres resteront à jamais gravés dans nos mémoires. Alors que nous pleurons cette perte incommensurable, j'adresse nos sincères condoléances à ses proches, à ses collègues et à l'ensemble de la communauté policière.

Our crew from Station 443 joined @torontomedics for a patient reunion, for a call from earlier this year. The responders worked hand in hand towards a positive outcome and we are all thankful for this special moment and opportunity for them to reconnect. #Toronto
