Support our Firefighters
In order to support our firefighters, a Nova Scotia Liberal government will:
- Pay the full cost for the volunteer firefighters to receive either basic or advanced medical first responder training, whichever the volunteer firefighter chooses, and
- Create a provincial office of the Fire Commissioner to help coordinate fire services across Nova Scotia, increase links between departments, and ensure that all firefighters are receiving the support they need from the provincial government.
Cost estimate: Total cost: $2.1M/year
