@hfxfirefighters Brothers and Sisters words cannot convey what it meant to our Department, Association , family and friends of Brother O’Toole . It truly was an honour and incredible tribute 🙏

[Halifax Professional Fire Fighters @hfxfirefighters]

A powerful and fitting tribute on Friday in St. John’s, as fire fighters from across Canada and the United States gathered to honour Jimmy O’Toole.

The Union Fire Club Pipes and Drums delivered an outstanding performance, representing the fire service with professionalism, pride, and respect.

We thank them for the time, effort, and commitment required to perform at this level, especially on days that carry such meaning.

It is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of James “Jim” O’Toole – a respected firefighter, a leader, and a tireless advocate for those who put their lives on the line to protect others.

A husband and a father of two boys, Jim rose to the rank of Lieutenant, while also being an admirable union leader serving as @IAFFofficial Local 1075’s President.

Jim leaves a remarkable legacy, not the least of which were his efforts on behalf of Bill C-224 – An Act to establish a national framework for the prevention and treatment of cancers linked to firefighting. I was privileged to work with Jim on this.

Jim’s work will remain a powerful reminder of who he was for decades to come. My condolences go to his wife, Crystal, and his sons Ryan and Gavin.

⚠️ Move over laws are designed to protect emergency responders, including police officers, firefighters, paramedics, tow truck operators, and other roadside workers, from potential dangers posed by passing traffic.

🚓 Move over - it's the law.
