Saanich, BC aligning firefighting services

The District of Saanich Fire Department has partnered with the Victoria and Oak Bay Fire Departments to ensure the alignment of fire services across the three municipalities. Each department signed a mutual firefighting agreement in order to increase resource capacity, firefighter training opportunities, and coordinated responses to high-risk events. Additionally, the departments adopted an automatic aid model in order to eliminate the need for departments to formally request assistance.
