Due to the forecasted extreme weather conditions, tomorrow’s Fallen Firefighter Ceremony has been postponed out of an abundance of caution for the families of our fallen firefighters, attendees, and all involved.

This decision was not made lightly. It is important that this ceremony receives the full attention, care, and solemnity it deserves as we gather to honour and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our communities.

We recognize the importance of this event to the families, friends, and colleagues of our fallen firefighters, and appreciate everyone’s understanding and support.

Additional details regarding a rescheduled date will be shared as soon as they are confirmed.
