A new mobile training trailer has been bought by the provincial government to support year-round fire rescue training for over 5,000 firefighters across the province.
This initiative aims to enhance the skills and safety of firefighters while providing accessible training to municipalities.
Until now, Manitoba lacked its own training trailer and had to rely on borrowing from the Ontario Professional Fire Fighters Association.
The new trailer marks a significant step in prioritizing firefighter safety within the province.
Fire rescue training trailers are presently available only in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario.
The mobile trailer will facilitate training for critical emergency scenarios such as disentanglement, low-profile operations, and upper-floor rescues.
