INTERNATIONAL FIREFIGHTERS’ DAY 🚒 | Today, Monday, May 4, is International Firefighters’ Day. Port Colborne Fire and Emergency Services recognizes the dedication, professionalism, and service of firefighters in our community and around the world.

Firefighters play a crucial role in protecting lives, property, and public safety. Their commitment goes beyond emergency response through ongoing training, prevention efforts, and public education.

First recognized globally in 1999, International Firefighters’ Day was established to honour firefighters and remember those who have lost their lives in the line of duty. The date of May 4 was chosen in recognition of St. Florian, the patron saint of firefighters.

Today, we also honour and remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

The City of Port Colborne extends its sincere appreciation to all members of Port Colborne Fire and Emergency Services for their continued service to our community.

is a reminder that emergencies rarely come with any warning. Whether it’s a power outage, severe weather, or another emergency, a little planning now can make a big difference later.

Simple steps you can take to be prepared:
✔️ Make a plan
✔️ Build a 72-hour kit
✔️ Stay informed

Preparedness isn’t just about individual safety. It’s about looking out for one another. When neighbours help neighbours, communities become stronger and more resilient.

Let’s be , Niagara.

HAZMAT TRAINING ☣️ | This week, our full-time firefighters from Platoon B took part in hands-on training with Class B hazardous materials suits.

Our crew reviewed how to properly put on and remove the suits ensuring they stay sealed, avoid contamination, and allow for safe entry and exit during a Hazmat response.

Ongoing training like this helps ensure our firefighters are ready to respond safely, confidently, and effectively in hazardous environments.
