@busdriverlife @SaanichFire @Dean_Murdock @SaanichPolice HI Gus. SFD has certainly taken proactive steps to be more inclusive and gender diverse. Our colleagues at SPD are great role models. I pleased to say the we have one of the highest women FF ratios in the province and we continue to increase that ratio with each recruitment.

Pleased to announce @SaanichFire staffing and service levels are increasing at Station 3 for residents living in the east of the District. Decreasing response times by adding resources is a good news story. #happychief
Our @SaanichFire staffing levels are increasing with the hiring of ten additional fire fighters to support 2 new 24/7 fire fighter positions at station three, furthering Saanich’s 10-year commitment to decrease fire response times and improve service.
