First Nation councilor hopes feds fill promise for fire hall soon
A councillor on the Mosquito, Grizzly Bear Head, Lean Man First Nation in central Saskatchewan is hoping to get some movement on a federal promise to build a fire hall in the community.
Celeste Sanders, who is also on her local fire department, explained that their fire department will use the training they are getting in Prince Albert on Thursday to help meet the regulations surrounding fire departments which will, in turn, help get the fire hall built.
“We would like to save our own homes, and this is the first kind of step towards it is getting some of the the formal training,” she said.
“We’re looking for a start date and we’re hoping for a start date soon,” she said.
