On Mon., Jan. 24 FF/PM Kelsey Sadler, Acting Lieutenant was killed in the line of duty in the 200blk of S. Stricker St–making the ultimate sacrifice, she has been Posthumously Promoted to Lt. She will forever be remembered for her commitment and bravery to BCFD and to Baltimore.
It is 11 Jan 2022 and in a few short days the government that claims to “have Canadians backs” is, with the stroke of a pen, going to throttle cross-border commercial traffic with a questionable vaccine mandate… why is this not a major media story? Think inflation is bad now?😳
The IAFF has designated January as Fire Fighter Cancer Awareness Month.
We've lost too many members to occupational cancer. Let's recommit to minimizing exposures & use the tools provided to improve safety & support those facing a diagnosis.

It is with deep sadness we announce the death of active member Firefighter Ryan Hill after a prolonged illness.
Our hearts go out to his family, friends & colleagues @OttFire.
Rest In Peace Brother Hill.
@IAFFCanada@opffa
Ryan joined the service in 2012. He was known by his peers for his contagious smile and love for the job.
He leaves behind his wife, Patricia, and four year old twin boys, Ryker and Reilly.
Rest easy, Brother.
It is with great sadness that the Ottawa Fire Service announces the passing of Firefighter Ryan Hill.
Ryan fought a courageous battle against cancer since being diagnosed in January 2021.
