We are 13 members of the International Association of Fire Fighters that encompass chartered local number 1298. The IAFF, as we refer to ourselves, is the driving force behind nearly every advance in fire and emergency services since the early 20th century to present.

Based in more than 3,200 communities through out Canada and the United States, we strive to protect not only our own members, but most importantly the public we serve. This translates to representing more than 300,000 fire fighters and emergency personnel who protect 85% of North America’s population.  I trust that you will find our website informative and a great learning tool to better understand how we as fire fighters strive to better protect the citizens of our community.

We continually make every effort to provide the best possible service with the resources that have been made available to us. We have gathered information for you that is not only factual, but affects every citizen and every emergency call we respond to 24 hours a day.
