Thank you to the City of Vancouver Fire Hall No. 1 – Strathcona for their on-duty crews, fire investigators, and the department’s information officer for a behind-the-scenes look at current fire trends, incident response strategies, and the infrastructure that supports frontline operations. It was a unique opportunity to see the first electric fire engine in Canada (second in North America) (Rosenbauer America | Rosenbauer Group) and hear from the folks keeping the densely populated city of Vancouver safe.

On October 21, the SFPE Foundation led a pre-conference workshop: Advanced Wildland-Urban Interface Training for the U.S. Fire Service. The workshop presented an abbreviated curriculum of three new training modules in advanced WUI fire protection topics, which will be piloted at several U.S. fire departments over the next year: WUI Fire Dynamics WUI Fire Modeling Human Behavior in WUI Fires
