The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
Thank
you,
mr
speaker,
and
I'd
like
to
acknowledge
that
I'm
speaking
from
the
unseated
territory
of
the
long,
the
congo
and
speaking
people,
specifically
the
esquimalt
and
the
sangees,
and
also
that
my
riding
is
in
the
unceded
territories
of
the
squamish
and
the
slaywe
tooth
today.
Mr
speaker,
I
want
to
talk
about
a
group
of
people
that
I
enjoy
very
very
much.
A
The
north
fan
district
fire
department
every
time
they
show
up
somewhere,
except
it,
fires.
Of
course,
there's
a
lot
of
fun
happening.
They're,
doing
safety,
drills,
they're,
they're,
checking
places
out
to
make
sure
that
they're
fire
safe
they're,
making
sure
that
people
are
getting
in
or
out
of
something
safely
and
successfully.
A
They
are
also
well
known
for
their
expertise
in
the
urban,
suburban
and
rural
interface
for
fire.
They
have
both
structural
fire
to
deal
with
and
wildlife
fire
to
deal
with
wildfire
to
deal
with,
and
so
they
do
a
lot
of
work
in
a
whole
variety
of
ways.
They
also
have
put
together
a
partnership
with
west
vancouver
and
north
vancouver
city,
where
they
cover
the
whole
area,
as
well
as
helping
out
right
up
the
coast.
A
The
north
vancouver
department
of
fire
department
district
is
looking
forward
to
their
new
training
center
at
the
maplewood
fire
and
rescue
center,
where
they're
going
to
be
combining
some
of
two
of
their
fire
halls
and
also
their
very
elderly
training
center.
That
has
been
used
for
many
things
and
they'll
be
opening
that
up,
hopefully
in
2023,
they
also
are
doing
something
which
is
a
perhaps
a
little
bit
unique
and
I'll
get
my
colleague
to
clarify
with
me,
but
they
are
getting
seeking
international
accreditation
within
the
firefighting
world.
