Tonight members of the WFD were joined by Whitewood paramedics Christian and Leah for a refresher on the ambulance and its equipment. As fire and EMS respond to various calls together, being familiar with the each others vehicles and equipment allows for effective mutual support when needed.

Firefighters also went over various size up scenarios for fire, rescue and hazmat situations they may face on a call. These classroom scenarios help firefighters determine the correct course of action for various types of calls to ensure their response is handled safely and efficiently as possible.

Thanks to Christian and Leah for coming out to tonight and joining us for some training.

Last night at 10:45 p.m. WFD was dispatched to their second accident in 24 hours, this time for a semi rollover east of Wapella on Highway 1. An eastbound semi lost control and entered the south ditch were it spilled its load of PVC piping. The driver was not injured in the incident. The scene was eventually turned over the RCMP and the tow truck company to be cleared up. All units weee back in service at 12:10 a.m.

Just before 6 p.m. WFD was dispatched to a single vehicle accident on Highway 1 at Burrows. A westbound car lost control on ice, slide into the ditch and struck a power pole. Both the driver and passenger were assessed on scene and escaped with minor injuries. All units were back in service at 7 p.m.

During the call a large number of semis passing the scene failed to slow down, despite the flashing lights on the emergency vehicles, pylons being placed on the highway and traffic control personnel holding slow down signs and the highway being icy. This is a reminder to drivers that it is the law to slow to 60 km/h while passing emergency vehicles. Failing to do so can not only result in hefty fines but it also puts the life of emergency personnel and victims at risk.

This morning Fire Chief Bernard Brule, Deputy Chief Chris Ashfield and firefighter Lisa Istace attended Whitewood School and spoke to grades 10 to 12 students about our junior firefighter program and the life skills it helps develop. Students also had a chance to check out a few tools and try on gear to see what being a firefighter is like.

Fire Chief Bernard Brule and Deputy Chief Chris Ashfield were at the Legislature for the reading of the provincial budget this afternoon as guests of MLA Kevin Weedmark. Also in attendance were members of Grenfell Fire Department, one of our mutual aid departments. During the budget the government announced they are doubling the firefighter tax credit to $6,000. WFD also had an opportunity to talk to Premier Moe about ways the government could continue to support volunteer fire departments. Thank you to our MLA for the invitation and to the government for recognizing the contribution firefighters make to communities.
