FORT WILLIAM FIRST NATION — The plan to establish a volunteer fire service in Fort William First Nation has taken a big step forward with a donation arranged through Firefighters Without Borders.
The Toronto-based organization is providing the community with a used pumper truck, a water tanker and 25 complete sets of firefighters’ gear.
Arrangements are in progress to transport the vehicles to Fort William from Trenton, Ontario where they have been in storage.
Fire Prevention Officer William Solomon reached out to Firefighters Without Borders after learning about the work they do across the country.
