With all the health advisories on smoke from the Wildland Fires in Ontario and the governments' commitment to firefighter health and safety, why are Wildland firefighters exculed from coverage under WSIB presumptive legislation? Doug Ford @montymcnaughton

We were very happy to be a part of Penetanguishene seniors information day today. There were lots of great questions and fire prevention information shared.

Early this morning PFD responded to a fully involved boat fire at Hindson marina. An aggressive fire attack allowed firefighters to prevent the fire from spreading to other boats docked in very close proximity. Thank you to Midland Fire Department and Township of Tiny for tanker assistance.

Today PFD Firefighters responded to the Trans-Canada Trail for the rescue of an injured cyclist. Firefighters used Argo 1 to access the trail, locate patient, complete a medical assessment, package patient, and bring them to safety and transportation by COSParamedic Service

Proud to have members of PVFFA out accepting food/cash donations for the Saint Vincent de Paul Thanksgiving food drive! Also sharing important cooking safety information in preparation for this years #FirePreventionWeek

Thank you once again to the generosity of the Penetanguishene community for supporting the PVFFA annual Easter food drive!

Thank you to COSParamedic Service for the recent training sessions with our firefighters on ambulance familiarization and the many ways we can assist Paramedics during medical emergency calls.

Congratulations to Deputy Chief Pierre Genier on his upcoming retirement! Deputy Chief Genier began as a volunteer firefighter in 1991 and was promoted to his current rank in 2009. Thank you for your many years of dedicated service to Penetanguishene and leadership to PFD!

Did you know firefighters require a specific license to drive fire trucks? We are hosing a DZ course for some newer firefighter to expand the amount of drivers on the department.

Congratulations to team PFD on their recent victory during the annual softball game vs. MFD! A fun time was had by all!
