Firefighter Recruitment

"My favourite part of the workday is every time I can make someone’s bad day a little brighter. Helping someone in their time of need and making the best of a bad thing. The main attraction for me was coming to work for the City I was raised in and that my family had been such a large part of. I believe the city is a positive, progressive place to work with excellent opportunities for an exciting career." Jack Fire Captain
