- I am an American, living and working in Canada. My husband is a Firefighter also, and we have two small boys that are eyeing up the Junior Firefighter program when they are able. They have a few years to go, but they have basically grown up around the firehall and the firefighters, and they aren't sick of it yet!!!
- Side Jobs or Other Organizations:
- Along with Fire Department duties, I run my own Non-Profit organization which teaches Fire & Life Safety programs to all age groups. Each age group receives a customized, fun, interactive program that is appropriate for their needs and abilities.

Welcome to the family where the language and reasoning importate the
border is not in our work is to save lives regardless of color, religion or social position, much less. The important thing in our work does not need language to communicate, or borders to help.

As for the general public knowing wha...
