Fire Services

About us

Our Emergency Services department consists of four fire stations, covering 340 km2, protecting a population of approximately 17,000 residents. We work in cooperation with other agencies, including the Office of the Fire Marshal and Emergency Management Ontario, and we also respond to assist neighbouring municipalities under mutual aid agreements. 

Our mission

Our mission will be accomplished through fire prevention, education, and emergency preparedness programs. When called upon we will provide a rapid and professional response to emergencies, show compassion for victims, and minimize damage to the environment. 

Our staff

We employ ten full-time staff: Fire Chief, two Deputy Fire Chiefs, an Emergency Vehicle Technician/Firefighter, four Firefighters, and two Fire Inspectors. Approximately 100 paid on-call firefighters respond to fires, rescues, medical and hazardous materials emergencies, and motor vehicle accidents.
