It is estimated that several hundred Canadian public safety agencies have acquired remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS). Approximately one third of those agencies are fire service oriented. Canadian fire departments that have acquired RPAS and are using them with great success gain additional situational awareness at the scenes of structure and wildland fires, as well as natural and man-made disasters. RPAS tasks include providing real-time video to fire scene management, penetrating hot zones such as HAZMAT spill areas and potential BLEVE evacuation zones, post disaster damage assessment, and post-response assessment and evaluation for training purposes.

An action-packed, on-the-ground memoir of the Fort McMurray wildfire and the courage, resilience, and sacrifice of the firefighters who saved the city.

Winds drove the flames towards the town, forcing the entire population to evacuate. As the fire swept through neighbourhoods, it fell to the men and women of the fire department to protect the city.
“Raw, honest and powerful. An incredible true story.” -Jody Mitic, bestselling author of Unflinching
